Abstract

On behalf of the editorial board, I am pleased to publish Volume 8, Issue 2 of the R Journal. This issue contains 33 contributed research articles. Each of them either presents an R package, a specific extension of an R package or applications using R packages available from the Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN, http:://CRAN.R-project.org). This issue highlights the breadth and depth of the R package ecosystem, covering advances in statistical computing and visualization, as well as novel applications of R in specific domains. The authors have described a small but representative sample of the now more than 11000 packages distributed through CRAN and Bioconductor.
