What is R Programming Language?

R is a programming language and free software environment for statistical computing

and graphics that is supported by the R Foundation for Statistical Computing.
How to write code in R? print((92 + 87 + 85)/3) ( to find out
average)
 Task-1: The following values are your exam, homework and project
scores, respectively in your chemistry class: 90,81,92. Calculate the
average score in chemistry class.
 Task-2: Here are your exam, homework and project scores for writing
class, respectively: 84,95,79 Here are your exam, homework and project scores
for art class, respectively. 95,86,93 Calculate the average score for each class.
Print the results for each calculation.
Athematic Operations: Arithmetic operators are used to carry out mathematical
operations.
For those who are unfamiliar with exponentiation, exponentiation will raise a number to
its power, using the ** or ^ operator.
Exponentiation is a way of multiplying a number by itself a specific number of times. If
we wanted to multiply the value 4 by itself 3 times, this would look like the following
using the * operator:
4*4*4
Unfortunately, This quickly gets cumbersome for larger exponents. For example, if we
wanted to multiply the value 4 by itself 20 times, we'd need to type out many values.
Instead, we can express the calculation as an exponent:
4**20
Running 4**3 will return: [1] 64
 A simple way to determine the order of your calculations is to throw a
parenthesis around the calculation you want performed first. This is useful
for a more complex calculation like this: print( (92 + 87 + 85 + 67 + 92 +
84)/6 - (77 + 90 + 98)/3 )
The R interpreter follows the order of operations rules in mathematics. An easy way to
remember this is PEMDAS:
 Parentheses
 Exponent
 Multiplication or Division
 Addition or Subtraction
Task-2: Write a single expression that calculates the average of the following values:
88,87.66667,86,91.33333,84,91,89.33333
 On the same expression, subtract this average from your math score 88.
 Print the entire expression.
 The R interpreter recognizes comments and treats them as plain text and
won't attempt to execute them. There are two main types of comments we
can add to our code:
 inline comment
 single-line comment
inline comment
An inline comment is useful whenever we want to annotate, or add more detail to, a
specific statement. To add an inline comment at the end of a statement, start with the
hash character (#) and then add the comment: print( (92 + 87 + 85)/3 #
Finding the math score )
single-line comment
A single-line comment spans the full line and is useful when we want to separate our
code into sections. To specify that we want a line of text to be treated as a comment,
start the line with the hash character (#):
# Here, we're finding the average of our scores. Then, subtracting this average from the
math score.
print( 88 - ((88 + 87.66667 + 86 + 91.33333 + 84 + 91 + 89.33333)/7) )

How to store value in the variable?

chemistry <- 87.66667 print(chemistry)
physical_education <-89.33333 print(physical_education)
Task-3:
 Calculate your grade point average using the following variables:
o math <- 88
o chemistry <- 87.66667
o writing <- 86
o art <- 91.33333
o history <- 84
o music <- 91
o physical_education <- 89.33333
 Store this in gpa.
 Subtract your gpa from history to see if history is below the average. Store this
difference in history_difference.
What is Vector in R?
In R, we can use a vector to store these values. A vector is a storage container that can
store a sequence of values. We can then name a vector using a variable. To create a
vector, you'll be using c(). In R, c() is known as a function. Similar to the print()
statement, the c() function takes in multiple inputs and stores these values in one place.
The c() function doesn't perform any arithmetic operation on the values, it just stores
those values.
math_chemistry <- c(88,87.66667)
We could also create the vector using your variable names as well:
math_chemistry <- c(math,chemistry)
If we were to print(math_chemistry), it would look like this:
[1] 88.00000 87.66667
On the other hand, if we tried to store a sequence of values, like this:
math_chemistry <- 88, 87.66667
The R interpreter will only try to assign 88 to math_chemistry but will not be able to
interpret the comma after 88:
Error: unexpected ',' in "math_chemistry <- 88,"
Task: 4
 Create a vector containing the score of each class using the variable names:
math <- 88
chemistry <- 87.66667
writing <- 86
art <- 91.33333
history <- 84
music <- 91
physical_education <- 89.33333
 Store this value in final_scores.

How to Print index in R from a vector?

final_scores <- c(88, 87.66667, 86, 91.33333, 84, 91, 89.33333)
third<- final_scores[3]
print(third) Result: 86
How to find out the vector class that what data type vector contains?
