Is this what you're looking for?

Description: `GNU S' - A language and environment for statistical computing.
R is described by its authors as "not unlike" S, which is a language
developed at Bell Laboratories for statistical computing and graphics.
It provides support for a variety of statistical and graphical analyses.
R is a true computer language which contains a number of control-flow
constructions for iteration and alternation. It allows users to add
additional functionality by defining new functions. Fortran and C
code can be linked and called at run time.
.
S is the statistician's Matlab and R is to S what Octave is to Matlab.
.
Versions 0.90.0 and higher have R functions CRAN.packages, install.packages,
and update.packages that can be used to select and update R packages from the
Comprehensive R Archive Network. The Debian packages r-cran, r-cran-non-free,
and r-mlbench are no longer needed and have been withdrawn.

Description: The GNU Octave language for numerical computations
Octave is a (mostly Matlab (R) compatible) high-level language, primarily
intended for numerical computations. It provides a convenient command-line
interface for solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically.
.
Octave uses some of the best and most respected numerical libraries as
balgen, dassl, eisspack, fftpack, lapack, linpack, minpack, odepack,
ranlib, slatec-fn and villad. Octave can be dynamically extended with
user-supplied C++ files.
