R for Data Science !

Welcome

This is the website for “R for Data Science”. This


book will teach you how to do data science with R:
You’ll learn how to get your data into R, get it into the
most useful structure, transform it, visualise it and
model it. In this book, you will find a practicum of skills
for data science. Just as a chemist learns how to clean
test tubes and stock a lab, you’ll learn how to clean
data and draw plots—and many other things besides.
These are the skills that allow data science to happen,
and here you will find the best practices for doing each
of these things with R. You’ll learn how to use the
grammar of graphics, literate programming, and
reproducible research to save time. You’ll also learn
how to manage cognitive resources to facilitate
discoveries when wrangling, visualising, and exploring
data.
