摘要:In this paper we intend to present an overview of the advantages of using R – the most powerful statistical software. The statements on R are exposed versus SAS and SPSS – actually the most used statistical software in Romania. The study also focuses on comparing strengths and weaknesses of SAS,SPSS and R. As an example on how R is much more flexible that the other software,we used a statistical analysis. We will see how dominant R is already in the academia and how is predicted to be in the commercial. It is time now for open-source powerful software for official statistics as well as for companies and business.
