You might look at "Zelig" from the Harvard-MIT Data Center.

Hi All,

I am considering learning "R" because it is what is used by our bio-statistics department in Vanderbilt's medical school. They obviously have a ton of libraries etc. that they are using so I would not have to start from scratch so to speak; however, I am wondering how long do you think it would take to get up to speed in "R" (i.e. to be able to manipulate variables, run simple correlations, regressions, ANOVA's etc.) as a not-particularly-advanced SPSS user?

Many thanks, Max Gunther
