The R environment is a free software environment for statistical computing and graphics. It runs on a wide variety of UNIX platforms, Windows and MacOS. R has become a popular platform for bioinformatics, genetics, and genomics study and research.

To download R, please go to http://www.r-project.org/. After you have installed R to your computer, you can install all of the packages by runing:

install.packages( new.packages() );

Installation of all of the packages can easily take half of a day.

You can install the basic packages of bioconductor by running:
