Subject: Re: [R] SQL and R
Just a slight technical note -- Ben gave you a good answer already, imo.
The note is: R is Turing complete, which mean that *anything* any
language can do, R could be programmed to do also. The point is what
can be done well in R and what can be done (often much) better with
other tools, as Ben explained.
Cheers,
Bert
