Hello, I've been trying to familiarize myself with the computing tools of the trade (e.g. SAS, R, Perl, LaTex) and I've been getting somewhere with the individual programs, but I'm trying to get a better sense of how to integrate these tools. I'd like to use scripts and create reports in a more organized way. Can anyone recommend books or, better yet free online articles, on this topic? Maybe I should be a little more specific about what I do: I'm a research assistant in clinical epidemiology doing mainly data management and analysis. I do a number of repetitive tasks like updating a research database from the original clinic database and other sources, create reports, create graphical output for individual patients, as well as work on individual research projects. Unfortunately I am not working closely with 'real' statisticians who have probably developped good work habits using these tools. Any advice on 'the big picture' would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks! Tanya Murphy ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help
