I think programming languages are called languages for a reason - and I think we all have a native and secondary language

Here's a handy lexicon between R and Python of sorts for your reference. It's sure to be handy, no matter which one is your native language!

R in Pharmacy? Honestly, I started losing any hope to see the pharmacy turning (even slowly!) towards R. A little has been happening since 1976, when the S (father of R), was born. And even when S, then R, gained the status of an industry standard in widely understood bio-sciences, it has never happened in pharmacy, namely in clinical research. This was -and still is- the kingdom exclusively reigned by SAS The King (with a low % of "supporters", including R).

It was a big shame, but, what could have been done against long years of spread myths, doubt, uncertainty and negative attitude?

Well, this is not that everything was right about R! Serious topics still have to be addressed, including:
1) numerical validation (ideally free, coordinated by, say, R Consortium),
2) support for CDISC-related processes,
3) metadata layer (SAS format/informat),
There are more topics, yet there's no place for details.

And then, about 5 years ago, something started changing. Slowly. More and more top-pharma companies (even FDA!) started talking about their use of R publicly, some even contributed (e.g. Merck's gsDesign tool).

Today I'd like to share with you the news: a new initiative by R Consortium - the "R in Pharma" project. http://rinpharma.com/
