Book Description

An essential guide to the trouble spots and oddities of R. In spite of the quirks exposed here, R is the best computing environment for most data analysis tasks. R is free, open-source, and has thousands of contributed packages. It is used in such diverse fields as ecology, finance, genomics and music. If you are using spreadsheets to understand data, switch to R. You will have safer - and ultimately, more convenient - computations.

• An Introduction to R (Alex Douglas, et al.)

  The main aim of this book is to help you climb the initial learning curve and provide you with the basic skills and experience (and confidence!) to enable you to further your experience in using R.

• R for Data Science: Visualize, Model, Transform, Tidy, Import

  This book teaches you how to do data science with R: You'll learn how to get your data into R, get it into the most useful structure, transform it, visualize it and model it, how data science can help you work with the uncertainty and capture the opportunities.

• Regression Models for Data Science in R (Brian Caffo)

  The book gives a rigorous treatment of the elementary concepts of regression models from a practical perspective. The ideal reader for this book will be quantitatively literate and has a basic understanding of statistical concepts and R programming.

• Advanced R (Florian Prive)

  This book aims at giving a wide understanding of many aspects of R. Combining detailed explanations with real-world examples and exercises, this book will provide you with a solid understanding of both statistics and the depth of R's functionality.

• Applied Statistics with R (David Dalpiaz)

  This book provides an integrated treatment of statistical inference techniques in data science using the R Statistical Software. It provides a much-needed, easy-to-follow introduction to statistics and the R programming language.

• Advanced R, Second Edition (Hadley Wickham)

  This book helps you understand how R works at a fundamental level. Designed for R programmers who want to deepen their understanding of the language, and programmers experienced in other languages to understand what makes R different and special.

• Advanced R Solutions (Malte Grosser, et al)

  This book offers solutions to the exercises from Advanced R, 2nd Edition by Hadley Wickham. It is work in progress and under active development. The 2nd edition of Advanced R is in print now and we hope to provide most of the answers.

• An Introduction to Statistical Learning: with Applications in R

  It provides an accessible overview of the field of statistical learning, an essential toolset for making sense of the vast and complex data sets that have emerged in fields ranging from biology to finance to marketing to astrophysics in the past twenty years.

• An Introduction to Bayesian Thinking (Merlise Clyde, et al.)

  It provides an introduction to Bayesian Inference in decision making without requiring calculus. It may be used on its own as an open-access introduction to Bayesian inference using R Programming for anyone interested in learning about Bayesian statistics.

• Advanced Data Analysis using R (Cosma R. Shalizi)

  This is a textbook on data analysis methods, intended for advance undergraduate students who have already taken classes in probability, mathematical statistics, and linear regression. All examples implemented using R.

• Introduction to Statistical Thinking, with R, without Calculus

  This is an introduction to statistics, with R, without calculus, for students who are required to learn statistics, students with little background in mathematics and often no motivation to learn more.
