Pro R: A Professional Guide to Statistical Programming is a hands-on book showing how to use the R language, write and save R scripts,
build and import data files, and write your own custom statistical functions. R is a powerful open-source implementation of the statistical
language S, which was developed by AT&T. R has eclipsed S and the commercially-available S-Plus language, and has become the de facto standard
for doing, teaching, and learning computational statistics.
R is both an object-oriented language and a functional language that is easy to learn, easy to use, and completely free. A large community of
dedicated R users and programmers provides an excellent source of R code, functions, and data sets. R is also becoming adopted into commercial
tools such as Oracle Database. Your investment in continuing to learn R is sure to pay off in the long term as R continues to grow into the go to
language for statistical exploration and research.
* Covers the freely-available R language for statistics
* Shows the use of R in specific uses case such as simulations, discrete probability solutions, multivariate analysis, and several hypothesis tests
* Takes a hands-on and example-based approach incorporating best practices with clear explanations of the statistics being done
