Red-R – Pipeline Visual Editor for Doing Stats With R
Overview of Red-R, visual editor for R.
From the post:
To ease my way into R, I’ve started using R-Studio, an in-development IDE. But the other day, I was also tipped off about Red-R, a visual programming environment for R that seems to be built around the same tooling as the Orange data analysis tool I wrote about last year.
It’s still pretty ropey at the moment (on a Mac at least), but works enough to be going on with…
The metaphor is based on pipeline processing of data, chaining together functional blocks with wires in the order you want the functions to be executed. Getting data in is currently from a file (it would be nice to see hooks into online datasources supported too), with a range of options for getting the data into the environment in a structured way:….
How would you visual topic map processing as topics, etc., encounter constraints or are formed by queries? What of items that are discarded or not selected? Thinking of something along the lines of interactive creation/destruction of topics along with merging of the same.
