R is a language and environment for statistical computing and
|
|
graphics. It is a GNU project which is similar to the S language and
|
|
environment which was developed at Bell Laboratories (formerly AT&T,
|
|
now Lucent Technologies) by John Chambers and colleagues. R can be
|
|
considered as a different implementation of S. There are some
|
|
important differences, but much code written for S runs unaltered
|
|
under R.

Notes:
|
|
|
|
If you do not need to build the R shared library (which is needed if
|
|
you would like to call R functions from other applications), execute
|
|
the script as R_SHLIB=no ./R.SlackBuild
|
|
|
|
If you do not need to build the BLAS shared library (which is useful
|
|
for swapping default unaccelerated BLAS for an accelerated one),
|
|
execute the script as BLAS_SHLIB=no ./R.SlackBuild
|
|
|
|
This package builds R from source; example build time (Intel Core
|
|
i7-7500U) is < 10 minutes.
