Statistical Computation and Graphics over Web

This input window leads you to Rcgi -- a web interface to the software R.

  • There is a graphic output file automatically prepared everytime you submit codes (click on "Go!"). So please do not request additional graphics device like "postscript()", etc.

  • Also, the computation is done on a computer at University of Kentucky, So please do not submit codes that will take a long time to run or take up a lot of memory. It is intended for occational, quick computations for those do not have R on their own computers. If you like it, you should get your own copy of R -- it is free!


    The Rcgi code are based on the work of MJ Ray (release 3a). I made changes to split it into two versions (with or without graph) and to reflect the more recent version of R.

    July 5, 2003. Fixed the problem of "graphics device not available". My guess is that this is caused by some changes in the ghostscript software in our computer system. No changes are needed for users. For administrator that maintain the cgi code, all you need to do is to add type = "bmp256" to the bitmap command in R.

    Want to use it in your own web page?

    You can easily use the Rcgi within your web page, providing hands-on examples. All you need is the following paragraph inside you HTML document. (Change the one line R code plot(rnorm(100),col="blue") to your own code.)
    <form method="post" action="http://www.ms.uky.edu/~statweb/cgi-bin/goR3.cgi">
    <textarea name="INPUT" rows="6" cols="64">
    plot(rnorm(100),col="blue")
    </textarea><br><input type="SUBMIT" value="Go!" >
    </form>
    
    That's it!
