R is a free software environment for statistical computing and graphics. Template:App Location

Available versions

Note: File a support ticket to request installation of additional libraries.

• 2.13.1
• 2.14.1
• 2.14.1-mpi - R base package MPI-enabled via the Rmpi library.
• 2.14.2 (default)

Running the application using modules

To use R with the environment modules system at HPC the following commands are available:

Get module information for r:

$module spider R

Load the default application module:

$module load R

The modulefile for this software adds the directory with executable files to the shell execution PATH and sets the following environment variables:

• HPC_R_DIR - directory where R is located.
• HPC_R_BIN - executable directory
• HPC_R_LIB - library directory
• HPC_R_INCLUDE - includes directory

To use the version of R built for parallel execution with MPI via the Rmpi library load the following modules:

module load intel/11.1 openmpi/1.4.3 R
