Hadley is Chief Scientist at RStudio and Adjunct Professor of Statistics at Rice University. He is interested in building better tools for data science. His work includes R packages for data analysis (ggvis, dplyr, tidyr); packages that make R less frustrating (lubridate for dates, stringr for strings, httr for accessing web APIs, rvest for webscraping); and that make it easier to do good soft ware development in R (roxygen2, testthat, dev tool s). He is also a writer, educator, and frequent speaker promoting more accessible, more effective and more fun data analysis.
内容简介
Advanced R presents useful tools and techniques for attacking many types of R programming problems, helping you avoid mistakes and dead ends. With more than ten years of experience programming in R, the author illustrates the elegance, beauty, and flexibility at the heart of R.
The book develops the necessary skills to produce quality code that can be used in a variety of circumstances. You will learn:
-The fundamentals of R, including standard data types and functions
-Functional programming as a useful framework for solving wide classes of problems
-The positives and negatives of metaprogramming
-How to write fast , memory-efficient code
This book not only helps current R users become R programmers but also shows existing programmers what’s special about R. Inter media te R programmers can dive deeper into R and learn new strategies for solving diverse problems while programmers from other languages can learn the details of R and understand why R works the way it does.
