A language for statistical computing
The lingua franca of statistics: 19,000+ packages for analysis, visualization and data science.
Ross Ihaka and Robert Gentleman's statistical language from Auckland, beloved in academia and biostatistics. Tidyverse packages (ggplot2, dplyr) made data manipulation and visualization a joy, and RMarkdown/Quarto publish analysis reproducibly. If your work is statistics-first rather than engineering-first, R remains excellent.
Who it's for
Statisticians and analysts who want purpose-built statistical computing and visualisation.
