REvolution R Enterprise 3.0 Now Available Featuring R Productivity Environment for Windows
REvo Adds RPE to Parallel Processing to Continue its Drive to Improve Ease of Use and Computational Speed for R Users
PALO ALTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--REvolution Computing, the leading commercial provider of software and support for the “R” statistical computing language, announced the release of REvolution R Enterprise 3.0 for Windows.
The latest version of REvolution’s industry-leading software features the new R Productivity Environment (RPE™) for performing data analysis and developing methods of statistical computing with the R language. Also included is an updated version of ParallelR, which enables R users to complete statistical analyses much more quickly by taking full advantage of multiprocessor systems and network systems.
Rich with new features, REvolution R Enterprise 3.0 for Windows with RPE represents a major advance in production-grade R.
The new Windows user interface gets novices and occasional R users up and going quickly while greatly improving productivity for experienced users. Analysts can easily import data, examine it in the object browser, and choose from a wide array of fill-in-the-blank, automatically generated R routines to perform analyses and create presentation-quality plots. A new visual debugger provides power and flexibility to advanced R users, along with script editing enhancements such as word completion, a solution explorer to organize and deploy analyses.
R scripts that are created or edited in the new Windows interface can be run on any supported REvolution R platform, including 32-bit and 64-bit Windows, as well as Mac OS X and Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Norman Nie, REvolution’s President and CEO, said, “RPE represents the first in a chain of REvolution product releases designed to provide more accessibility and usability for R users at every level of experience.”
Sue Ranney, Vice President of Product Management, said, “Anyone looking to deploy R will appreciate how the new REvolution R Enterprise interface improves productivity for R novices and veterans alike. New users get step-by-step guidance for conducting data analysis with R, while power users benefit from the integrated development environment (IDE) to visually debug complex R projects and easily share the resulting functionality with others. This is a big step forward for production-grade R and for predictive analytics.”
The REvolution Enterprise 3.0 for Windows with RPE interface includes the following features:
- Enhanced Script Editor with hover-over help, word completion, find-across-files capability, automatic syntax checking, bookmarks, and navigation buttons.
- R Code Snippets to automatically generate fill-in-the-blank sections of R code for a variety of analyses. Tooltip help gives guidance in filling out the snippet. R function authors can write their own code snippets to share with other users.
- Object Browser allowing users to see all the data and function objects that are available, including those in loaded and installed R packages. Context menus provide the capability to quickly edit and plot data or load a package.
- Full-featured Visual Debugger for debugging R scripts, with step-in, step-over, and step-out capability, allowing users to inspect and modify R objects as they are debugging.
- A Visual Solution Explorer for organizing, viewing, adding, removing, and rearranging, and deploying R scripts. Users can create their own Project Templates for automatic creation of a set of customized scripts for a new R project.
- Dockable, Floating, and Tabbed Tool Windows allowing for personally customized workspaces.
- Enhanced Help including complete search capabilities and hover-over tooltips for functions and data objects.
