The second edition of the popular textbook "Using R for Introductory Statistics" offers students an accessible introduction to R, breaking the sometimes steep learning curve into manageable steps. The author retains the success factors of the first edition and updates it with new data, examples, and changes to R appropriate for the current version.

Key features of the second edition:

  • More emphasis on idiomatic R for a better basic understanding of the functionality of the base version of R.
  • Discussions on using RStudio help beginning R users avoid stumbling blocks.
  • Using the knitr package makes code more readable and understandable.
  • Additional information on computer-intensive methods for motivation beyond the traditional approach.
  • Updated examples and data keep the content relevant and current.
  • This book is accompanied by the UsingR package, available on CRAN, the repository for user contributions to R. The package contains datasets mentioned in the book, answers to selected questions, some demonstrations, errata, and sample code from the text.

    While the topics in this text align with traditional educational progression, the book also highlights computationally intensive approaches to further clarify the traditional method. Realistic data and examples are combined with visualization techniques for deeper insights. Statistics and R are seamlessly introduced, providing students with the necessary tools to use R effectively and navigate the sometimes complex world of statistical computing.
