[R] Just Beginning

[Prof Brian Ripley]

R can talk to MySQL via the RMySQL and RODBC packages: which is easier
will depend on your infrastructure, including your OS.

You haven't even told us your OS.  But the 'R Data Import/Export Manual' 
and 'An Introduction to R', both of which ship with R, are the manuals to 
start with, as well as the package documentation.
