A short course in R
These are notes for a two-day course in R, starting with reading in data,
and proceeding through more complex programming to S3-style methods. On
the way, we cover various basic data summaries, graphics, the bootstrap,
and regression methods. Some of these slides are based on an earlier
course developed by me and Doug Bates, which used to be at this URL.

There is lots more information in the R manuals, which
give an introduction
to
the language, explain how to extend
R, and describe ways
to
get data in and out of R.
