The current status of R is a command line driven interface with no advanced cross-platform graphical user interface (GUI), but it includes tools for building such. Over the past years, proprietary and non-proprietary GUI solutions have emerged, based on internal or external tool kits, with different scopes and technological concepts. For example, Rgui.exe and Rgui.app have become the de facto GUI on the Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X platforms, respectively, for most users. In this paper 1. Introduction we discuss RKWard which aims to be both a comprehensive GUI and an integrated devel- opment environment for R. RKWard is based on the KDE software libraries. Statistical Nowadays, graphical user interfaces (GUIs) are the most common way of interacting with procedures and plots are implemented using an extendable plugin architecture based on a computer or other electronic devices. Whereas they are arguably not the best way of ECMAScript (JavaScript), R, and XML. RKWard provides an excellent tool to manage different types of data objects; even allowing for seamless editing of certain types. The performing every conceivable job, its dominance has reached the principal operative systems, objective of RKWard is to provide a portable and extensible R interface for both basic application domains, and tasks. Measured it in purely statistical terms, the triumph of this and advanced statistical and graphical analysis, while not compromising on flexibility and style of interaction is unquestionable and it seems clear that it will remain very popular in modularity of the R programming environment itself. the foreseeable future. However, regarding the discipline of statistics, this supremacy does not seem so dramatically Keywords: GUI, integrated development environment, plugin, R. clear, as many of the people working in this field seem to favor that using a typed language via a command line interface (CLI) is a much more productive, accurate and reproducible way of performing their tasks than a GUI. Actually, we are positive that they are right, because writing up commands can be undoubtedly much more productive than using a GUI, as far as 1. Background and motivation the learning cost is not included in the bill. Thus, although getting the knowledge to manage a command-based language is within reason if you are going to use it very often, the novice In mid 1993 Ihaka and Gentleman published initial efforts on the computing language and and occasional users of statistical software may not ever see sufficient returns to justify the programming environment R on the s-news mailing list.

  • Navigating the R Package Universe by Julia Silge, John C
    CONTRIBUTED RESEARCH ARTICLES 558 Navigating the R Package Universe by Julia Silge, John C. Nash, and Spencer Graves Abstract Today, the enormous number of contributed packages available to R users outstrips any given user’s ability to understand how these packages work, their relative merits, or how they are related to each other. We organized a plenary session at useR!2017 in Brussels for the R community to think through these issues and ways forward. This session considered three key points of discussion. Users can navigate the universe of R packages with (1) capabilities for directly searching for R packages, (2) guidance for which packages to use, e.g., from CRAN Task Views and other sources, and (3) access to common interfaces for alternative approaches to essentially the same problem. Introduction As of our writing, there are over 13,000 packages on CRAN. R users must approach this abundance of packages with effective strategies to find what they need and choose which packages to invest time in learning how to use. At useR!2017 in Brussels, we organized a plenary session on this issue, with three themes: search, guidance, and unification. Here, we summarize these important themes, the discussion in our community both at useR!2017 and in the intervening months, and where we can go from here. Users need options to search R packages, perhaps the content of DESCRIPTION files, documenta- tion files, or other components of R packages. One author (SG) has worked on the issue of searching for R functions from within R itself in the sos package (Graves et al., 2017).

  • Software Corner: Rkward: Installation and Use Aaron Olaf Batty [email protected] SRB General Editor
    Software Corner Software Corner: RKWard: Installation and use Aaron Olaf Batty [email protected] SRB General Editor Many readers of SRB are likely familiar with the free, open-source statistical software package R. R offers a staggeringly wide range of analyses and outputs, besting every other general statistics package on the market, for free. This value, however, comes at a cost that may seem too steep for many users: it is command-line only. One must learn to write R code to take advantage of this software, and although the code itself is relatively memorable and intuitive, it cannot compete with the ease of use offered by the graphical user interfaces (GUIs) of competing packages, such as SPSS/PASW—a software package whose price can run over a thousand US dollars. What is RKWard? RKWard seeks to lower the usability barrier to entry into statistical analysis with R by providing a GUI frontend that hides much of the code from the use (although it is easy to inspect in the con- sole for those who wish to do so). Furthermore, it streamlines the sometimes-maddening process of importing data into R, and can read SPSS and Stata files natively in addition to standard text formats. Finally, its general look-and-feel will be immediately familiar to those who have used SPSS, further easing entry for novices. It has been in development since 2005, and achieved its first stable release in 2011. Although it uses the KDE desktop environment, which is usually found on Linux systems, it is not limited to computers running Linux/Unix.

  • Sharing and Organizing Research Products As R Packages Matti Vuorre1 & Matthew J
    Sharing and organizing research products as R packages Matti Vuorre1 & Matthew J. C. Crump2 1 Oxford Internet Institute, University of Oxford, United Kingdom 2 Department of Psychology, Brooklyn College of CUNY, New York USA A consensus on the importance of open data and reproducible code is emerging. How should data and code be shared to maximize the key desiderata of reproducibility, permanence, and accessibility? Research assets should be stored persistently in formats that are not software restrictive, and documented so that others can reproduce and extend the required computations. The sharing method should be easy to adopt by already busy researchers. We suggest the R package standard as a solution for creating, curating, and communicating research assets. The R package standard, with extensions discussed herein, provides a format for assets and metadata that satisfies the above desiderata, facilitates reproducibility, open access, and sharing of materials through online platforms like GitHub and Open Science Framework. We discuss a stack of R resources that help users create reproducible collections of research assets, from experiments to manuscripts, in the RStudio interface. We created an R package, vertical, to help researchers incorporate these tools into their workflows, and discuss its functionality at length in an online supplement. Together, these tools may increase the reproducibility and openness of psychological science. Keywords: reproducibility; research methods; R; open data; open science Word count: 5155 Introduction package standard, with additional R authoring tools, provides a robust framework for organizing and sharing reproducible Research projects produce experiments, data, analyses, research products. manuscripts, posters, slides, stimuli and materials, computa- Some advances in data-sharing standards have emerged: It tional models, and more.
