Inference for R is an alternative to R-project’s Sweave functions
R provides Sweave for embedding R code in LaTeX documents to create dynamic reports, which can be updated automatically if the data or analysis changes. However, to use Sweave functions requires a steep learning curve involving LaTeX text formatting syntax and Sweave procedures. Sweave also makes it difficult to collaborate with colleagues who may not be familiar with LaTeX and Journals may not accept submissions in LaTeX format. By contrast, Inference for R enables you to achieve results immediately using the familiar WYSIWYG editing environment of Microsoft Word and Excel. Furthermore, Inference for R enables you to use the full data management and publishing capabilities of Microsoft Excel and Word to deliver better reports of your R-projects with less time and effort.
