Introduction to 'R'
You will find here a basic introduction to the 'R Software'. Take the time to explore the Basic Commands menu before starting the pratical. |
'R' Software Features
R is available as Free Software under the terms of the Free Software Foundation's GNU General Public License in source code form. It compiles and runs on a wide variety of UNIX platforms and similar systems (including FreeBSD and Linux), Windows and MacOS.
It includes:
- an effective data handling and storage facility,
- a suite of operators for calculations on arrays, in particular matrices,
- a large, coherent, integrated collection of intermediate tools for data analysis,
- graphical facilities for data analysis and display either on-screen or on hardcopy, and
- a well-developed, simple and effective programming language which includes conditionals, loops, user-defined recursive functions and input and output facilities.
Our Objectives
- To get familiar with a new modelling and statistical analysis software.
- To use the 'R' software to explore the behaviour of simple genetic network motifs.
- To be able to build and simulate new, and more complex, genetic networks.
