The R Companion to Elementary Applied Statistics includes traditional applications covered in elementary statistics courses as well as some additional methods that address questions that might arise during or after the application of commonly used methods. Beginning with basic tasks and computations with R, readers are then guided through ways to bring data into R, manipulate the data as needed, perform common statistical computations and elementary exploratory data analysis tasks, prepare customized graphics, and take advantage of R for a wide range of methods that find use in many elementary applications of statistics.



Features:




  • Requires no familiarity with R or programming to begin using this book.




  • Can be used as a resource for a project-based elementary applied statistics course, or for researchers and professionals who wish to delve more deeply into R.



  • Contains an extensive array of examples that illustrate ideas on various ways to use pre-packaged routines, as well as on developing individualized code.



  • Presents quite a few methods that may be considered non-traditional, or advanced.
