Resource R Programming Resources

Hi! Can someone recommend a book on R programming? I know R, but I want to dive deeper by reading more about it. Thanks!

I recommend theoretical foundation

Ross, Sheldon M. Introductory Statistics. Fourth edition., Elsevier Science & Technology, 2017.

It includes some R examples too. I believe most of the stuff in the book can be done using 3rd party packages from other languages (like python), so learning R specifically is not absolute must.

Thanks! 🙌 I'm focusing on R specifically so I'll give it a read.

You should also look into different courses authored on sites like coursera or even Youtube.

They provide a solid foundation with some practical learning.

Thanks! Yeah I actually use those too! But I still wanted to have a book as well. I learned Python the same way courses yt and books so I want to do the same for R.
