R software for Meta-analysis

6 years ago in Statistical Analysis By Nitesh Singhal

Statistical Tests

My query is related to R-software. I want to know the advantages and main reasons why we use R not as a software but as a statistical work. I think using it like any other software would be more beneficial.

ere are some reasons which I found when I was researching a similar topic: 1. It’s free. 2. It’s highly reproducible. 3. It’s fast. The value of R could be painful at first, but from the second run, you only have to execute your code. “Point-and-click” or GUI software becomes time-consuming when you conduct your analysis several times. 4. It’s shareable. 5. It’s good to have a complete workflow by combining with other packages.
