Maybe you didn't mean it this way, but to me your comment reads as, basically, "I tried R for an hour and didn't immediately grok it, therefore it is a waste of time." That may not be what you meant, so I haven't downvoted yet, but it doesn't seem to be an attitude that is helpful for the conversation. |

What I meant to say was that I helped my wife during her master thesis (~6 months) with R, in addition to spending an hour in one of the classes.
Her teachers also were novices of both R and Excel, and we had several issues with everything from how R processes csv:s, to just figuring out the proper syntax to have R do what we wanted.
Sorry if my comment wasnt helpful, i was merely attempting to add some reflections from personal experience to the discussion.
