Default Oracle tucks R stats language into database

From http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/02...ced_analytics/

Quote:
Relational database juggernaut Oracle has embedded the R programming language used by more than 2 million statisticians and quants the world over into its 11g relational database. Call it R-acle 11g, Quant Edition.

R, of course, is the open source statistical analysis programming language and is also the name of the runtime engine for that language. R is a bit like the Red Hat for stats, with its main competitors being the closed source analytic tools from SAS Institute and IBM's SPSS unit, among others. The R language was created in 1996 by Ross Ihaka and Robert Gentleman, two stats professors from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.
