Peter Dalgaard announced yesterday on behalf of the R core team that R 3.3.1, the latest update to the R language, is now available for download from your local CRAN mirror. As of this writing, binaries of R 3.3.1 are available for Windows and Linux; the Mac version should appear very soon.

This minor update, codenamed “Bug in Your Hair”, makes a few small fixes to the R 3.3.0 release. Bugs fixed include mostly rarely-encountered cases like generating Gamma random numbers with zero or infinite rate parameters, and correctly matching text (with the match function) that only differed in the encoding. 

There are no new features in this update, and all R code and packages should work with R 3.3.1 just as they did with R 3.3.0. For a complete list of the fixes in R 3.3.1, follow the link below.
