Abstract:

In finance, R has quickly eclipsed other tools for statistical computing. R-based applications are moving out of the research departments and onto the trade desks. R packages related to finance are growing in size and sophistication, and the annual R/Finance Conference in Chicago is drawing a large, nation-wide audience from academia and industry.
