Book Description
Get started with an accelerated introduction to the R ecosystem,programming language,and tools including R script and RStudio. Utilizing many examples and projects,this book teaches you how to get data into R and how to work with that data using R. Once grounded in the fundamentals,the rest of Practical R 4 dives into specific projects and examples starting with running and analyzing a survey using R and LimeSurvey. Next,you’ll carry out advanced statistical analysis using R and MouselabWeb. Then,you’ll see how R can work for you without statistics,including how R can be used to automate data formatting,manipulation,reporting,and custom functions.
The final part of this book discusses using R on a server; you’ll build a script with R that can run an RStudio Server and monitor a report source for changes to alert the user when something has changed. This project includes both regular email alerting and push notification. And,finally,you’ll use R to create a customized daily rundown report of a person’s most important information such as a weather report,daily calendar,to-do’s and more. This demonstrates how to automate such a process so that every morning,the user navigates to the same web page and gets the updated report.
