* Pittsburgh Perl Workshop 07 *

Some updates as to were we are on the road to PPW 07.

* Fun with numbers: Using Perl and the R statistics system for fun and profit - Tom Moetel *

In this festive talk I will introduce the R system for statistical computing and show how you can use it, and Perl, to answer some of life's most important questions.  Questions like:

  If I see this movie, is it likely to suck?

  Is my blog becoming more (or less) popular,
  and, if so, how much?

Additionally, we will investigate ways of using R to convert buckets of numbers into cool graphs that reveal patterns, lead to insight, and unlock meaning.  And, of course, Perl will help us every step of the way, munging raw data into the stuff we can actually use.

If you've ever wanted to have fun with numbers, this is *your* talk.

Don't miss it.

* This months Social Gathering 8:30 pm *

* Location *

Yet to be determined.
