  • Emacs Speaks Statistics (ESS): a Multi-Platform, Multi-Package Intelligent Environment for Statistical Analysis
    Emacs Speaks Statistics (ESS): A multi-platform, multi-package intelligent environment for statistical analysis A.J. Rossini Richard M. Heiberger Rodney A. Sparapani Martin Machler¨ Kurt Hornik ∗ Date: 2003/10/22 17:34:04 Revision: 1.255 Abstract Computer programming is an important component of statistics research and data analysis. This skill is necessary for using sophisticated statistical packages as well as for writing custom software for data analysis. Emacs Speaks Statistics (ESS) provides an intelligent and consistent interface between the user and software. ESS interfaces with SAS, S-PLUS, R, and other statistics packages under the Unix, Microsoft Windows, and Apple Mac operating systems. ESS extends the Emacs text editor and uses its many features to streamline the creation and use of statistical software. ESS understands the syntax for each data analysis language it works with and provides consistent display and editing features across packages. ESS assists in the interactive or batch execution by the statistics packages of statements written in their languages. Some statistics packages can be run as a subprocess of Emacs, allowing the user to work directly from the editor and thereby retain a consistent and constant look- and-feel. We discuss how ESS works and how it increases statistical programming efficiency. Keywords: Data Analysis, Programming, S, SAS, S-PLUS, R, XLISPSTAT,STATA, BUGS, Open Source Software, Cross-platform User Interface. ∗A.J. Rossini is Research Assistant Professor in the Department of Biostatistics, University of Washington and Joint Assis- tant Member at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, WA, USA mailto:[email protected]; Richard M.

  • An Introduction to ESS + Xemacs for Windows Users of R
    An Introduction to ESS + XEmacs for Windows Users of R John Fox∗ McMaster University Revised: 23 January 2005 1WhyUseESS+XEmacs? Emacs is a powerful and widely used programmer’s editor. One of the principal attractions of Emacs is its programmability: Emacs can be adapted to provide customized support for program- ming languages, including such features as delimiter (e.g., parenthesis) matching, syntax highlight- ing, debugging, and version control. The ESS (“Emacs Speaks Statistics”) package provides such customization for several common statistical computing packages and programming environments, including the S family of languages (R and various versions of S-PLUS), SAS, and Stata, among others. The current document introduces the use of ESS with R running under Microsoft Windows. For some Unix/Linux users, Emacs is more a way of life than an editor: It is possible to do almost everything from within Emacs, including, of course, programming, but also writing documents in mark-up languages such as HTML and LATEX; reading and writing email; interacting with the Unix shell; web browsing; and so on. I expect that this kind of generalized use of Emacs will not be attractive to most Windows users, who will prefer to use familiar, and specialized, tools for most of these tasks. There are several versions of the Emacs editor, the two most common of which are GNU Emacs, a product of the Free Software Foundation, and XEmacs, an offshoot of GNU Emacs. Both of these implementations are free and are available for most computing platforms, including Windows. In my opinion, based only on limited experience, XEmacs offers certain advantages to Windows users, such as easier installation, and so I will explain the use of ESS under this version of the Emacs editor.1 As I am writing this, there are several Windows programming editors that have been customized for use with R.
