R for the Rest of Us
Learn how to use R for everything from workload automation and creating online reports, to interpreting data, map making, and more.
Written by the founder of a very popular online training platform for the R programming language!
For statisticians, R is the go-to programming language for complex numerical analysis—but it comes in handy for a lot more than that. In R Without Statistics you’ll discover ways that R can be used by the rest of us! Packed with real-world examples and easy-to-follow coding instructions, it introduces R’s application in a wide range of non-statistical tasks, from data visualization and interpreting survey results, to map plotting and automating workloads.
Each chapter features an actual R programmer who achieved something novel using the language, and then covers the case study and code samples demonstrating exactly how they did it. Whether it’s creating visualizations for Scientific American , applying a consistent theme to BBC graphics, organizing professional government reports, or effectively mapping the spread of COVID-19, R offers a unique way to transform your work.
