Before I get too far into this I should note that any of the news items

them via some mailing list I was on, via some Usenet newsgroup, or via

<br><font face="Arial,Helvetica"><font size=-1>R is a system for statistical
|

computation and graphics. It consists of a language plus a run-time environment

with graphics, a debugger, access to certain system functions, and the

ability to run programs stored in script files. R implements a language
|
|
which is not entirely unlike the S language developed at AT&T Bell

Laboratories by Rick Becker, John Chambers and Allan Wilks. Indeed in the

absence of an R manual, you can (mostly) get along by using the S manual.</font></font>

now is in sync with the unix version.</font></font>

is a compilation of all entries made to the Internet Raytracing Competition
|

during its second year of operation. As the IRTC is bi-monthly, this covers

round #7 (May/June 1997) to round #12 (March/April 1998). There are over

1000 images and source archives available.</font></font>

year's worth of stills submissions, the CD also contains the first three

rounds of the quarterly animation competition (October 1997-January 1998

|
through April 1998-July 1998). This CDROM is designed to be

used with a web browser - the entire CD is indexed via HTML and bears some

resemblance to the IRTC website (with enhancements).</font></font>
