Using R

With all the systems ready to launch, let's start our first commands. R will take both the strings in the quotes or simple numbers. Here, we will put one command as a string and one command as a number. The output is the same as the input:

> "Let's Go Sioux!"
[1] "Let's Go Sioux!"

> 15

R can also act as a calculator:

> ((22+5)/9)*2
[1] 6

Where R starts to shine is in the creation of vectors. Here, we will put the first ten numbers of the Fibonacci sequence in a vector using the c() function, which stands for combining the values to a vector or list (concatenate):

> c(0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34) #Fibonacci sequence
 [1]  0  1  1  2  3  5  8 13 21 34

Note that in this syntax, I included a comment, Fibonacci sequence. In R, anything after the ...
