A brief history of R R is an implementation of the S language S was developed in 1976 at Bell Laboratories (now Lucent) John Chambers with Rick Becker and Alan Wilks: "to turn ideas into software, quickly and faithfully." Chambers is a member of the R development team Ross Ihaka and Robert Gentleman released R (their common first initial) in 1993 “R” is a GNU licenced, FREE and open source implementation of S.
My experience with S/R NCBI – Integration of PDB structure into GenBank and Cn3D Steve Bryant – NCBI used S to build the first life-sciences S database package “PKB” to analyze PDB structures. Still in use today. Bryant SH (1989) PKB: a program system and data base for analysis of protein structure. Proteins. PMID:2780541
