One of the first books on these topics to feature R  Statistical Computing with R covers the traditional core material of computational statistics  with an emphasis on using the R language via an examples-based approach. Suitable for an introductory course in computational statistics or for self-study  it includes R code for all examples and R notes to help explain the R programming concepts. After an overview of computational statistics and an introduction to the R computing environment  the book reviews some basic concepts in probability and classical statistical inference. Each subsequent chapter explores a specific topic in computational statistics. These chapters cover the simulation of random variables from probability distributions  the visualization of multivariate data  Monte Carlo integration and variance reduction methods  Monte Carlo methods in inference  bootstrap and jackknife  permutation tests  Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods  and density estimation. The final chapter presents a selection of examples that illustrate the application of numerical methods using R functions. Focusing on implementation rather than theory  this text serves as a balanced  accessible introduction to computational statistics and statistical computing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45655663214645,"sku":"ByrdShop_1584885459","price":67.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781584885450.jpg?v=1781937812","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/statistical-computing-with-r-computer-science-and-data-analysis-9781584885450","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
