SimpleR A Windows-based interface to R for basic statistics

SimpleR is a Windows-based interface designed to make R accessible for users unfamiliar with programming. Developed by Gunther Maier at the Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration, SimpleR aims to reduce entry barriers for Windows users while addressing 90% of their statistical needs. It supports tasks such as reading data, performing basic statistical analyses, and creating graphics. Written in Visual Basic 6 and utilizing R(D)COM, SimpleR generates R commands, retrieves results, and facilitates project management with an intuitive interface.

  2. SimpleR - goals and intentions • Wants to • lower entry barriers for Windows users • support 90% of the needs of 90% of (potential) users • Does NOT want to • cover all of R • be OS independent

  3. SimpleR - supported tasks • Reading data in various formats • Data transformations • Basic statistical analyses (descr. stats, cross-tabulation, correlation, regression) • Graphics • Project management

  4. SimpleR - technical information • Written in Visual Basic 6 • Builds upon R(D)COM by Thomas Baier • Lets R do all the computing • SimpleR does • get user requests, generate R command(s) • send command(s) to R for execution • get and display results • keep track

  5. SimpleR - things to do • Cleaning up and commenting code • adding more procedures • support for different languages • help system • R-help • SimpleR-help • statistical help • testing under real world conditions
