Clear Linux* OS r-base container image
What is this image?
clearlinux/r-base is a Docker image with r-base running on top of the
official clearlinux base image.
R is a language and environment for statistical computing and graphics. It is a GNU project which is similar to the S language and environment which was developed at Bell Laboratories (formerly AT&T, now Lucent Technologies) by John Chambers and colleagues. R can be considered as a different implementation of S. There are some important differences, but much code written for S runs unaltered under R.

Why use a clearlinux based image?
Clear Linux* OS is an open source, rolling release Linux distribution optimized for performance and security, from the Cloud to the Edge, designed for customization, and manageability.
Clear Linux* OS based container images use:
- Optimized libraries that are compiled with latest compiler versions and flags.
- Software packages that follow upstream source closely and update frequently.
- An aggressive security model and best practices for CVE patching.
- A multi-staged build approach to keep a reduced container image size.
- The same container syntax as the official images to make getting started easy.
