Hi! ?I'm new to R programming, though I've been programming in other languages for years. One thing I find most frustrating about R is how difficult it is to use Google (or any other search tool) to look for answers to my R-related questions. ?With languages with even slightly more distinctive names like Perl, Java, Python, Matlab, OCaml, etc., usually including the name of the language in the query is enough to ensure that the top hits are relevant. ?But this trick does not work for R, because the letter R appears by itself in so many pages, that the chaff overwhelms the wheat, so to speak. So I'm curious to learn what strategies R users have found to get around this annoyance. TIA! KJ ? ? ? ?[[alternative HTML version deleted]]
