This book is a problem-solution primer for using R to set up your data, pose your problems and get answers using a wide array of statistical tests. The book walks you through R basics and how to use R to accomplish a wide variety statistical operations. You'll be able to navigate the R system, enter and import data, manipulate datasets, calculate summary statistics, create statistical plots and customize their appearance, perform hypothesis tests such as the t-tests and analyses of variance, and build regression models. Examples are built around actual datasets to simulate real-world solutions, and programming basics are explained to assist those who do not have a development background. After reading and using this guide, you'll be comfortable using and applying R to your specific statistical analyses or hypothesis tests. No prior knowledge of R or of programming is assumed, though you should have some experience with statistics.Big dataSoftware engineeringR (Computer program language)Big Datahttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I29120Software Engineering/Programming and Operating Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I14002Big data.Software engineering.R (Computer program language).Big Data.Software Engineering/Programming and Operating Systems.570.1570.1/5195Baldock Sarahauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut943440UMIUMIBOOK9910300462103321Using R for Statistics2129292UNINA
