R for Beginners Kamakshaiah Musunuru

R is a language of statistics. R is not only a programming language for statistical computing but a platform for research management. R supports all activities spanning from data collection to reports and dashboards. At first this may sound weird, but it is true. People only know R as a programming language meant for statistical analysis. Today, R is also used for full stack applications due to the advent of few packages like Shiny, Plumber and many more. However, much of the community does not know about various opportunities for web-development available through R. These server applications are useful for creating online survey forms, which assists in collecting data. Packages like Shiny could be helpful for assisting in analyzing such collected data. This book is a sleek and slender manual for beginners. The primary aim of this book is not hard-core programming, but to provide a comprehensive manual for practice of R. There is sufficient description on programming concepts such as control flow, loops, functions etc. While coming to contents; this text has 5 chapters and each chapter represents a unique concept related to practice of code in R. The idea behind 5 chapters is that the learner may be able to pick R with in few weeks. This book might be much helpful for practitioners, academics, scholars and graduating students to acquire knowledge on R in a very short time.
