R is an open source software/programming language for data analysis, statistical modeling, visualization, data mining, predictive analytics, statistical computing, exploratory data analysis etc.
This group is aimed to bring together practitioners (from industry and academia alike) in order to exchange knowledge and experience in solving data analysis/statistical problems by using R. Besides discussing techniques and solutions in R, emphasis will be put on providing a good understanding of the data analysis and statistical modeling methodologies used. Also, we will devote time to help new users become familiar with R and its numerous capabilities.

What members are saying
“ This is an excellent opportunity to join an local forum for discussions on R, data analysis, statistics, data mining, visualization etc. ...
”
“ To become more informed R users and developers. Nobody can know all the capabilities of R, so this is a good chance to interact with people who have different or better ways of solving problems. ”
