This long-awaited second edition folds years of updates into its beginner-friendly lessons on using R for data and statistical analysis.

The Book of R is a comprehensive, beginner-friendly guide to R, the world's most popular programming language for statistical analysis. Even if you have no programming experience and little more than a grounding in the basics of mathematics, you'll find everything you need to begin writing programs in R.

You'll start with the basics, like how to handle data and write simple programs, before moving on to more advanced topics, like producing statistical summaries of your data and performing tests and modeling. You'll even learn how to create impressive data visualizations with R's graphics tools and contributed packages, like ggplot2, ggvis, and rgl.

Dozens of hands-on exercises take you from theory to practice as you learn:
