The basics of S and S-Plus
by Andreas Krause
S-Plus is a powerful tool for interactive data analysis, creating graphs, and implementing customized routines. Originating as the S language of AT&T Bell Laboratories, its modern language and flexibility make it appealing to data analysts from many scientific fields.
This book explains the basics of S-Plus in a clear style at a level suitable for people with little computing or statistical knowledge. Unlike the S-Plus manuals, it is not comprehensive, but instead introduces the most important ideas of S-Plus through the use of many examples. Each chapter also includes a collection of exercises that are accompanied by fully worked-out solutions and detailed comments. The volume is rounded off with practical hints on how efficient work can be performed in S-Plus.
The book is well suited for self-study and as a textbook.
