constant support and encouragement © 2010 by Taylor and Francis Group, LLC Downloaded by [King Mongkut's Institute of Technology, Ladkrabang] at 01:45 11 September 2014 Preface to Second Edition Like the first edition this book is intended as a guide to data analysis with the R system for statistical computing New chapters on graphical displays, generalised additive models and simultaneous inference have been added to this second edition and a section on generalised linear mixed models completes the chapter that discusses the analysis of longitudinal data where the response variable does not have a normal distribution In addition, new examples and additional exercises have been added to several chapters We have also taken the opportunity to correct a number of errors that were present in the first edition Most of these errors were kindly pointed out to us by a variety of people to whom we are very grateful, especially Guido Schwarzer, Mike Cheung, Tobias Verbeke, Yihui Xie, Lothar H¨aberle, and Radoslav Harman We learnt that many instructors use our book successfully for introductory courses in applied statistics We have had the pleasure to give some courses based on the first edition of the book ourselves and we are happy to share slides covering many sections of particular chapters with our readers LATEX sources and PDF versions of slides covering several chapters are available from the second author upon request A new version of the HSAUR package, now called HSAUR2 for obvious reasons, is available from CRAN Basically the package vignettes have been updated to cover the new and modified material as well Otherwise, the technical infrastructure remains as described in the preface to the first edition, with two small exceptions: names of R add-on packages are now printed in bold font and we refrain from showing significance stars in model summaries Lastly we would like to thank Thomas Kneib and Achim Zeileis for commenting on the newly added material and again the CRC Press staff, in particular Rob Calver, for their support during the preparation of this second edition Brian S Everitt and Torsten Hothorn London and M¨ unchen, April 2009 © 2010 by Taylor and Francis Group, LLC Downloaded by [King Mongkut's Institute of Technology, Ladkrabang] at 01:45 11 September 2014 Preface to First Edition This book is intended as a guide to data analysis with the R system for statistical computing R is an environment incorporating an implementation of the S programming language, which is powerful and flexible and has excellent graphical facilities (R Development Core Team, 2009b) In the Handbook we aim to give relatively brief and straightforward descriptions of how to conduct a range of statistical analyses using R Each chapter deals with the analysis appropriate for one or several data sets A brief account of the relevant statistical background is included in each chapter along with appropriate references, but our prime focus is on how to use R and how to interpret results We hope the book will provide students and researchers in many disciplines with a self-contained means of using R to analyse their data R is an open-source project developed by dozens of volunteers for more than ten years now and is available from the Internet under the General Public Licence R has become the lingua franca of statistical computing Increasingly, implementations of new statistical methodology first appear as R add-on packages In some communities, such as in bioinformatics, R already is the primary workhorse for statistical analyses Because the sources of the R system are open and available to everyone without restrictions and because of its powerful language and graphical capabilities, R has started to become the main computing engine for reproducible statistical research (Leisch, 2002a,b, 2003, Leisch and Rossini, 2003, Gentleman, 2005) For a reproducible piece of research, the original observations, all data preprocessing steps, the statistical analysis as well as the scientific report form a unity and all need to be available for inspection, reproduction and modification by the readers Reproducibility is a natural requirement for textbooks such as the Handbook of Statistical Analyses Using R and therefore this book is fully reproducible using an R version greater or equal to 2.2.1 All analyses and results, including figures and tables, can be reproduced by the reader without having to retype a single line of R code The data sets presented in this book are collected in a dedicated add-on package called HSAUR accompanying this book The package can be installed from the Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) via R> install.packages("HSAUR") and its functionality is attached by R> library("HSAUR") The relevant parts of each chapter are available as a vignette, basically a © 2010 by Taylor and Francis Group, LLC document including both the R sources and the rendered output of every analysis contained in the book For example, the first chapter can be inspected by Downloaded by [King Mongkut's Institute of Technology, Ladkrabang] at 01:45 11 September 2014 R> vignette("Ch_introduction_to_R", package = "HSAUR") and the R sources are available for reproducing our analyses by R> edit(vignette("Ch_introduction_to_R", package = "HSAUR")) An overview on all chapter vignettes included in the package can be obtained from R> vignette(package = "HSAUR") We welcome comments on the R package HSAUR, and where we think these add to or improve our analysis of a data set we will incorporate them into the package and, hopefully at a later stage, into a revised or second edition of the book Plots and tables of results obtained from R are all labelled as ‘Figures’ in the text For the graphical material, the corresponding figure also contains the ‘essence’ of the R code used to produce the figure, although this code may differ a little from that given in the HSAUR package, since the latter may include some features, for example thicker line widths, designed to make a basic plot more suitable for publication We would like to thank the R Development Core Team for the R system, and authors of contributed add-on packages, particularly Uwe Ligges and Vince Carey for helpful advice on scatterplot3d and gee Kurt Hornik, Ludwig A Hothorn, Fritz Leisch and Rafael Weißbach provided good advice with some statistical and technical problems We are also very grateful to Achim Zeileis for reading the entire manuscript, pointing out inconsistencies or even bugs and for making many suggestions which have led to improvements Lastly we would like to thank the CRC Press staff, in particular Rob Calver, for their support during the preparation of the book
