Even if you have no programming experience and little more than a grounding in basic math, The Book of R, 2nd Edition will teach you everything you need to know for using R effectively in statistical analysis. You'll start with the basics, like how to handle data and write simple programs, before moving on to more advanced topics, like producing statistical summaries of your data, performing statistical tests, and modelling. You'll also learn how to create impressive data visualizations with R's graphics tools and contributed packages, like ggplot2 and ggvis, as well as interactive 3D visualizations using the rgl package. Over 30 of hands-on exercises (with downloadable solutions) take you from theory to practice, as you explore: the fundamentals of programming in R, including how to write data frames, create functions, and use variables, statements, and loops; statistical concepts like exploratory data analysis, probabilities, hypothesis tests, and regression modeling, and how to execute them in R; how to access R's thousands of functions, libraries, and data sets, and how to draw valid and useful conclusions from your data How to create publication-quality graphics of your results.
Tilman M. Davies is an academic at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Otago in New Zealand, where he teaches statistics at all university levels. He has been programming in R since the early 2000s and uses it in all of his courses. Davies has received multiple significant research grants for his methodological work in spatial statistics and in 2024 received the Littlejohn Award, the premier research award of the New Zealand Statistical Association.
