[R] New version of The R Guide available on CRAN

2007-08-17 Thread Owen, Jason
Hello,

A newly-revised version of my introductory manual The R Guide
is now available in the Contributed Documents section in CRAN.
Among other changes, the description of the function t.test() has 
been expanded as well as an introduction to methods for the 
creation of prediction and confidence intervals with regression.

The manual is still under 60 pages in length.  The current version
is 2.3.  For those who attended/presented useR!2007 at Iowa State,
thanks for making it a great conference.

[R] new version of The R Guide available on CRAN

2006-08-22 Thread Owen, Jason
Hello,

Version 2.2 of The R Guide is available for download in
the Contributed Documents section on CRAN.  The R Guide
is written for the beginning R user.  I use the guide in my
undergraduate probability and math stat sequence, but anyone
with a basic understanding of statistics (who wants to learn
R) should find it useful.

This updated version includes sections on multiple comparisons,
optimization, along with some improvements suggested by fellow
R users from around the world.  The entire document is under
60 pages in length.

Hi,

thanks for this.  I'll keep it in mind next time in teaching/referring
someone to R.  BTW, before the R-core guys get you ;)   Just replace
all places where you use library to refer to a package (see all
comments on the definition of these on r-help/r-devel), e.g.

Page 17: FYI, .GlobalEnv is your workspace and the package quantities
are libraries that contain (among other things) the functions and
datasets that we are learning about in this manual.

Cheers

Henrik
