ess binary package in Ubuntu Bionic amd64

 ESS ("Emacs Speaks Statistics") is a GNU Emacs and XEmacs mode for
 interactive statistical programming and data analysis. Languages
 supported are the S family (S 3/4, S-PLUS 3/4/5/6/7, and R), SAS,
 XLispStat, Stata, BUGS and Julia.
 .
 ESS grew out of the desire for bug fixes and extensions to S-mode and
 SAS-mode as well as a consistent union of their features in one
 package.
 .
 As of versions 16.04 or later, Emacs version 24 or later is required.
