Acerca de este libro electrónico

This book discusses the use of R Programming in statistical analysis. Author has deliberately designed this book for a novice because he himself is not a qualified software specialist. Being a medical doctor he should be forgiven for tasking this book for a beginner like himself. Some of the points would be too basic for a reader with knowledge of computer coding. 


This book would hand hold the basic user to use the powerful tool like R Programming.Even though a large number of IDE’s are availabe that could sit over R Programming making the job of the user comfortable the author would stick to the most popular and powerful R Programming IDE called RStudio. 


The reasons for preferring RStudio are as follows:

1. It is the most stable IDE’s for R

2. It is constantly being updated and maintained by volunteer group

3. It not only helps the user to run R programs, it is a powerful authroing tool that can be used to author articles and books. This aspect since not under the scope of the book will not be covered here. Of coure there will be a passing mention of these features in some chapters.


Why should one choose R Programming for statistical analysis?


1. R Programming tools come under open source category and hence does not involve cost on the part of the user. It is free to download, modify and use.

2. It has a constant source of libraries which can be installed when needed to make the life of a statistitian that much simple. These libraries can be installed and called into action as and when needed. Relevant libraries and their uses, installation procedure will be discussed in this book. Only those libraries that are very important for statistical purposes will be discussed here.

3. It is an excellent tool for graphical analysis of data as it can create excellent graphs which would be of high quality that it can be printed without loss of resolution.
