To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more than asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to say what the experiment died of.
~ Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher

The plural of anecdote is not data.
~ Roger Brinner

The combination of some data and an aching desire for an answer does not ensure that a reasonable answer can be extracted from a given body of data.
~ John Tukey

A hash (#) anywhere on a line will comment out the rest of the line. Try!

I don't think there is anything in R that will indicate the beginning and end of a "comment section" (like /* .... */ would in SAS). However most editors (and certainly emacs and Tinn-R) will allow you to comment out several lines.

Hi everybody,

I use for the moment "#" at the begining of each line for comments.

Is there any possibility to comment more than one line, like something which shows the beggingng and the end of the comment? Or is there a possibility to comment only a part of a line?

Thanks,

Mihai
