Dear Samee bhai, Yes, I have already enrolled my name in this course which will be started at the end of September. Eagerly waiting for this.
Dear Nabir bhai, Many thanks for extending your hands to help me. I am going to communicate with you in another email. Dear Nasim bhai, Many thanks for in-details information about R. I have already installed it as well as R-studio in my computer. However, though I knew S language, but because of not working in this language for the last some years (as I prefer graphical environment of SPSS), I absolutely forgot everything. :( Many thanks to all of you for your kind reply. Especially I will write more and more to Nabir bhai and Nasim bhai as they have already experience on this language. Hope my journey to R will be easier because all of you will with me.
