ISBN: 9781466590731.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe second edition of a bestselling textbook, Using R for Introductory Statistics guides students through the basics of R, helping them overcome the sometimes steep learning curve. The author does this by breaking the material down into small, task-oriented steps. The second edition maintains the features that made the first edition so popular, while updating data, examples, and changes to R in line with the current version.\nSee What’s New in the Second Edition:\nIncreased emphasis on more idiomatic R provides a grounding in the functionality of base R. Discussions of the use of RStudio helps new R users avoid as many pitfalls as possible. Use of knitr package makes code easier to read and therefore easier to reason about. Additional information on computer-intensive approaches motivates the traditional approach. Updated examples and data make the information current and topical.\nThe book has an accompanying package, UsingR, available from CRAN, R’s repository of user-contributed packages. The package contains the data sets mentioned in the text (data(package=\"UsingR\")), answers to selected problems (answers()), a few demonstrations (demo()), the errata (errata()), and sample code from the text.\nThe topics of this text line up closely with traditional teaching progression; however, the book also highlights computer-intensive approaches to motivate the more traditional approach. The authors emphasize realistic data and examples and rely on visualization techniques to gather insight. They introduce statistics and R seamlessly, giving students the tools they need to use R and the information they need to navigate the sometimes complex world of statistical computing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"CRC Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45255492730933,"sku":"ByrdShop_1466590734","price":56.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781466590731_0aa73f59-fc63-4071-9242-e15aa3569c3d.jpg?v=1779930649","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/using-r-for-introductory-statistics-chapman-hallcrc-the-r-series-9781466590731","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
