This is a two day workshop (February 4 and 5) in R which  is a free and open source environment for data analysis and statistical computing.  While R contains many built-in statistical procedures, a powerful feature of R is the facility for users to extend these procedures to suit their own needs.  Excellent graphing capability is another reason R is gaining wide popularity.
