# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

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