For what it's worth, I've been told that Rmerge was used originally, in the pre-cryo few images per crystal age, to indicate the R-factor for merging data collected from multiple crystals. Isym is calculated identical but refers to data collected from a single crystal.

To be honest I'm not sure if this reflects history or somebody trying to make something out of nothing but I've been using Rsym ever since.

Dear All CCP4bbers,

Please help me in finding *R-sym I *(observed), *R-merge I*(obseved), *R-Free
Error i*n the data provided below. If I am not wrong, Can anyone suggest me
the difference between R-sym and R-merge?

Thanks in advance for the help.
