There are piles of documents that you could (and should) read. I am
surprised that you haven't found them in your extensive searches. To set
your thoughts free, go here:
http://www.r-project.org/
http://cran.r-project.org/manuals.html ## read the first one, and
whatever else you need
Then click on CRAN, and choose a mirror site (nearby), say:
http://cran.za.r-project.org/
Then go:
http://cran.za.r-project.org/other-docs.html
and start at the top.
HTH,
Mark.
PS: It might help you in your future enquiries if you used a real name, and
if you called R R rather than r (since your keyboard clearly doesn't have a
broken R ;).
