R

Getting started using the `forecast` package for time series data in R, as quickly as possible and no explanations.

My local data mart runs on MS SQL Server, and I want to pull data directly into R or Python for data analysis. This is **really** easy on Windows with its' built-in ODBC manager, but I spent a weekend figuring out how to do this after switching to OSX. A lot of documentation out there is old (from 2012), so I decided to make this for anyone still looking for an answer in 2019.
