R as a calculator

1 / 200 * 30

## [1] 0.15

(59 + 73 + 2) / 3

## [1] 44.66667

sin(pi / 2)

## [1] 1

assignment symbol

x <- 3 * 4

What’s in a name?

## [1] 12

this_is_a_really_long_name <- 2.5

r_rocks <- 2 ^ 3

Calling functions

Use of `TAB`

seq(from = 1, to = 10, by = 1)

##  [1]  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10

continuation character, `+`

seq(from = 1, to = 10)

##  [1]  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10

Printing to screen

y <- seq(from = 1, to = 10)
y

##  [1]  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10
