Statistical Programming With R
An anonymous reader writes "This series introduces you to R, a rich statistical environment, released as free software. It includes a programming language, an interactive shell, and extensive graphing capability. What's more, R comes with a spectacular collection of functions for mathematical and statistical manipulations -- with still more capabilities available in optional packages."
I use both Lisp and maxima, and i fail to see the strangeness in maxima's syntax. In any case, the exposed syntax isn't anything Lisp-like.
