And I really need to explain to all the nitwits how trade creates wealth out of nothing. Damn it.

@St_Rev I suppose it's a symptom of cultural innumeracy that making a simple graph is rendered difficult for an MIT CS PhD. Easier in 1985… -
@Meaningness Yeah, I could probably do the graphs in 20 minutes in Maple or Mathematica, but I don't have access to either. -

@pthagnar@Meaningness Took a swing at doing it with OpenOffice, unsuccessfully. PEBKAC. -

@Meaningness@pthagnar Just worked through the introductory R tutorial and I think I understand less than I did before.

@St_Rev > that gnuplot binary does not work under Mountain Lion so once again I cannot make a trivial graph. I do not understand this. -
@Meaningness Yeah, R is free and seems to be a big thing nowadays so I thought it would be good to have an excuse to learn it. -
@St_Rev Ah, well, in THAT case…! Yeah, since you regularly deal with stats, learning R seems sensible.

@St_Rev I enjoyed that a lot when I first read it! Hope you have some success with the nitwits. There's probably easier tools than R...Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@St_Rev Although when I recently wanted to do an incredibly simple graph on my Mac, it was an epic hassle. Ended up using a version >Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@St_Rev … of gnuplot that was embedded in some other random thing because compiling gnuplot on the Mac is de facto impossible. UnfortunatelyThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
