Predictive analysis based on past data

HI,

I have a historical dataset which tells who bought our products. This dataset contains ID, Age, Gender and Salary.
I have another set of data which contains the four fields above.
How should I use R to calculate the probability of purchase of each customer in the second dataset or whether they would buy our products (T/F)?
Should I use glm function? If yes, how should I approach this?
Thanks.

Regards,

This list is about R programming, not statistical methodology,
although there is sometimes an overlap. You should do better posting
to a statistics list like stats.stackexchange.com for queries about
statistics. Although it looks like you may need to do some studying in
a basic regression methods text or online tutorial.

Cheers,
Bert
