Description
Draws upon the popularity and free availability of R to couple the theory and practice of biostatistics into a single treatment - for biologists learning statistics, R, or both.
R — the statistical and graphical environment is rapidly emerging as an important set of teaching and research tools for biologists.
In this book, an abridged description of biostatistical principles and analysis sequence keys are combined together with worked examples of the practical use of R into a complete practical guide to designing and analyzing real biological research.
Topics covered include:
