[SciPy-dev] An interesting exercise - reproduce R analysis using python.

A quite good online book, "Using R for Data Analysis and Graphics" by
John Maindonald has been updated and has all the data and exercises
posted on the net. Relevance to this group? I think it might be quite
fun and instructive to work through the 'R' exercises with
numpy/matplotlib/scipy instead. I'm considering doing it, partly just
to broaden my numpy/matplotlib skillset, but I thought I would post
this here in case anyone else might find it an interesting challenge.

Exercises and datasets can be found from links here :
