R-helpers: I'm sure this question has been asked and answered through the ages, but given there are some new textbooks out there, I wanted to re-pose it. For a course that will cover the application of R for general computing and spatial modeling, what textbook would be best to introduce computing with R to *undergrads*? I understand Bivand and Pebesma's book is fine for spatial work, but it appears to be for more advanced users -- I'd like a companion textbook that is better for complete beginners to ALL forms of programming (e.g. they don't know what an object is, a loop is, an if-then statement, etc). Suggestions? In particular, I'd like to hear from those of you who have TAUGHT classes using R. Thanks!
