if you're interested in learning R now this free course just started yesterday

https://www.coursera.org/course/rprog

I've done the course a few times and I think I've learned a fair amount of R
(its a basic R programming course - the graphing course is also free and starts every month https://www.coursera.org/course/exdata but you have to know basic R before taking the graphing course)

R is a very difficult language
especially if you've never done programming before
so that first course is really tough

this tutorial
Code School - Try R
is a great help

its is a VERY SLOW tutorial,
you will think it is going too slow, but trust me
you want to go slow
R is a real pain

after the tutorial, you may want to look at these
twotutorials (videos) - how to do stuff in r. two minutes or less
twotorials by anthony damico

these are also very helpful (they helped a lot with the homework from the coursera course)
Cookbook for R » Creating strings from variables
Cookbook for R » Basics
Cookbook for R » Manipulating Data
Cookbook for R » Statistical analysis

and thanks for the course info, but I don't have Calc 1 or 2 so I guess I'll have to work on that first
