Dear all,

I was also wondering is there any advantage using R on Linux vs. Windows?

One friend told me that I might pick up the use of R on Linux, since some
financial firms are using R in that platform. But what I want to know is, in
terms of learning language, what is the difference b/t doing in tow
platforms?

Thanks very much!


Best,
Yuguang
