The learning curve of R is rather steep at start.
Yes, it can be. I think the general advice would be to get a good Intro to R book if you're just starting out. That's certainly my advice. Or, get a book on some methods you're interested in that uses R (the Springer useR! series is really useful for this.) --Erik ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
