Resources for Learning to Use R

[rabbit2013]

Hi all,

 

 

One of my pre-grad school summer projects is to learn how to use R to analyze data. I have been using SPSS for the last few years and am looking for some good books (or other resources) to help me make the switch. Any recommendations?

 

Thanks!

You can also try Discovering Statistics using R by Andy Field.

Springer has tons of books on R and you might be able to access many of them for free if you have a university account:

i ditto that. my summer job is to train new graduate students (and a few professors) so they can jump into R as soon as the September semester starts and that's the textbook we use.

 

welcome to the R bandwagon. once you've mastered the basics (how to read data in, how to plot simple graphs) you'll be amazed at what an incredible tool R is.

I believe Coursera has a course.
