R
Language and environment for statistical computing and graphics
R is GNU S, 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. The core of R is an interpreted computer language which allows branching and looping as well as modular programming using functions. The R distribution contains functionality for a large number of statistical procedures such as: linear and generalized linear models, nonlinear regression models, time series analysis, classical parametric and nonparametric tests, clustering, smoothing and graphical data representations. Additional modules ("add-on packages") are available for a variety of specific purposes but are not distributed with this package.

Use flags of 4.6.1
- cairo Enable support for the cairo graphics library

- icu Enable ICU (Internationalization Components for Unicode) support, using dev-libs/icu
- java Add support for Java
- jpeg Add JPEG image support
- +libdeflate Use app-arch/libdeflate rather than virtual/zlib for lazy-loaded R objects.
- lto Enable Link-Time Optimization (LTO) to optimize the build
- minimal Install a very minimal build (disables, for example, plugins, fonts, most drivers, non-critical features)
- nls Add Native Language Support (using gettext - GNU locale utilities)
- openmp Build support for the OpenMP (support parallel computing), requires >=sys-devel/gcc-4.2 built with USE="openmp"
- perl Add optional support/bindings for the Perl language
- png Add support for libpng (PNG images)
- prefix Defines if a Gentoo Prefix offset installation is used
- profile Add support for software performance analysis (will likely vary from ebuild to ebuild)
- readline Enable support for libreadline, a GNU line-editing library that almost everyone wants
- test Enable dependencies and/or preparations necessary to run tests (usually controlled by FEATURES=test but can be toggled independently)
- tiff Add support for the TIFF image format
- tk Add support for Tk GUI toolkit
- X Add support for X11
