Recenzje

"...There is a rare kind of scientific book which manages to fulfil the requirements of the reader simultaneously for fun and knowledge. Learn R: As a Language by Pedro J. Aphalo is definitely one of the best representatives of such work...the style of the language is very simple and easy for absorbing knowledge... Also, special icons are used in the book to highlight whether given information is general, advanced, or important, and this method really works for simplifying understanding...In conclusion, Learn R: As a Language is a great book for beginners, which delivers information in a joyful and interesting way. And I expect that reading the three books, recommended by the author at the very end, should be the next necessary step to having more fun with R."
