For some reason I've never been able to wrap my head around R. Most
likely because I'm too used to solving problems faster in perl. But
then I haven't needed to do anything more than simple stats.
One thing I'm not too keen on with R is that it likes to suck
everything into memory and then work on it. That makes R very fast,
but also means you have to have a lot of RAM to work with large
datasets.
In fairness, it's been a few years since I've worked with R, so things
may have changed.
Regards,
- Robert
