Description

The classic R programming language for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch. Programming language is a perfect tool for studying, complex mathematical calculation, entertainment and many other useful tasks. The application is especially useful for learning the R programming language. You have to buy compilations inside the application. Internet connection is required. - The great programming tool on the AppStore. - Your programming language for iOS is amazing! * FEATURES * - Compile and run your program. - Text input before program run and text output. - Enhanced source code editor with syntax highlighting, line numbers, color themes and additional keyboard. - Online language reference and several program samples. * LIMITATIONS * - Internet connection is required to compile and run a program. - Graphics, network, file system and real-time input are not supported. - Maximum running time of a program is 15 seconds. - Plotting is not supported at this moment. Thanks for using the application! ==================================== R is a programming language and software environment for statistical computing and graphics. The R language is widely used among statisticians for developing statistical software and data analysis. R is an implementation of the S programming language combined with lexical scoping semantics inspired by Scheme. S was created by John Chambers while at Bell Labs. R was created by Ross Ihaka and Robert Gentleman at the University of Auckland, New Zealand, and now, R is developed by the R Development Core Team, of which Chambers is a member. R is named partly after the first names of the first two R authors (Robert Gentleman and Ross Ihaka), and partly as a play on the name of S. R is part of the GNU project. The source code for the R software environment, which is written primarily in C, Fortran, and R. R is freely available under the GNU General Public License, and pre-compiled binary versions are provided for various operating systems. R uses a command line interface; however, several graphical user interfaces are available for use with R. R provides a wide variety of statistical and graphical techniques, including linear and nonlinear modeling, classical statistical tests, time-series analysis, classification, clustering, and others. R is easily extensible through functions and extensions, and the R community is noted for its active contributions in terms of packages. There are some important differences, but much code written for S runs unaltered. Many of R's standard functions are written in R itself, which makes it easy for users to follow the algorithmic choices made. For computationally intensive tasks, C, C++, and Fortran code can be linked and called at run time. Advanced users can write C or Java code to manipulate R objects directly. R is highly extensible through the use of user-submitted packages for specific functions or specific areas of study. Due to its S heritage, R has stronger object-oriented programming facilities than most statistical computing languages. Extending R is also eased by its permissive lexical scoping rules. According to Rexer's Annual Data Miner Survey in 2010, R has become the data mining tool used by more data miners (43%) than any other. Another strength of R is static graphics, which can produce publication-quality graphs, including mathematical symbols. Dynamic and interactive graphics are available through additional packages. R has its own LaTeX-like documentation format, which is used to supply comprehensive documentation, both on-line in a number of formats and in hard copy.

  • No graphics

    R programmers expect the plot() function to plot graphics. If nothing else in R works, this ought to. But it doesn’t. To be fair, the App Store description says so, but I didn’t read that till afterwards, and never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that graphics would not be supported. I even spent a few bucks on unlimited compilations before discovering this to be the case.
  • $3 !! It's not free

    The app is misleading, as it is not free.
  • Horrible

    Should have read reviews before trying. Do not get. This is a waste of time and not free.
  • Worst of the worst

    A piece of junk. No packages after you pay three bucks.
  • Don't bother

    Dont bother with downloading this misleading app. Free to download Asks for money when you actually want to use it. No Package installation support. This is very opposite to what R community stands for.
  • Not really free.

    You can download for free but need to pay to actually use it. It's only $3, but still misleading. Charge the money and stop being dishonest.
  • Too simple

    A simple online version. Can not generate plots and can not install packages either.
  • Not for learning

    Basically a book and then tries to charge you to try it on your own
  • Unreliable

    "The program executed perfectly"....yet I don't see anything. Why create an app and make people pay for compilations like I did, just so it it can frustrate users with its unreliability. Thanks for taking the time to develop this neat looking app, but it's simply garbage if it doesn't function as it should.
  • Awful documentation

    Awful documentation on what R functionality is / is not available in app.
