THE ART OF R PROGRAMMING - NORMAN MATLOFF KARTO...

R is the world's most popular language for developing statistical software: Archaeologists use
it to track the spread of ancient civilizations  drug companies use it to discover which
medications are safe and effective  and actuaries use it to assess financial risks and keep
economies running smoothly.   The Art of R Programming takes you on a guided tour of software
development with R  from basic types and data structures to advanced topics like closures 
recursion  and anonymous functions. No statistical knowledge is required  and your programming
skills can range from hobbyist to pro.  Along the way  you'll learn about functional and
object-oriented programming  running mathematical simulations  and rearranging complex data
into simpler  more useful formats. You'll also learn to: -Create artful graphs to visualize
complex data sets and functions -Write more efficient code using parallel R and vectorization
-Interface R with C C++ and Python for increased speed or functionality -Find new R packages
for text analysis  image manipulation  and more -Squash annoying bugs with advanced debugging
techniques  Whether you're designing aircraft  forecasting the weather  or you just need to
