Using R for Introductory Statistics

TLDR: This chapter discusses programming in R using Functions using Files and a Better Editor Object-Oriented Programming with R, and discusses low- and high-Level Graphic Functions and Confidence Intervals.

Abstract: DATA What Is Data? Some R Essentials Accessing Data by Using Indices Reading in Other Sources of Data UNIVARIATE DATA Categorical Data Numeric Data Shape of a Distribution BIVARIATE DATA Pairs of Categorical Variables Comparing Independent Samples Relationships in Numeric Data Simple Linear Regression MULTIVARIATE DATA Viewing Multivariate Data R Basics: Data Frames and Lists Using Model Formula with Multivariate Data Lattice Graphics Types of Data in R DESCRIBING POPULATIONS Populations Families of Distributions The Central Limit Theorem SIMULATION The Normal Approximation for the Binomial for loops Simulations Related to the Central Limit Theorem Defining a Function Investigating Distributions Bootstrap Samples Alternates to for loops CONFIDENCE INTERVALS Confidence Interval Ideas Confidence Intervals for a Population Proportion, p Confidence Intervals for the Population Mean, u Other Confidence Intervals Confidence Intervals for Differences Confidence Intervals for the Median SIGNIFICANCE TESTS Significance Test for a Population Proportion Significance Test for the Mean (t-Tests) Significance Tests and Confidence Intervals Significance Tests for the Median Two-Sample Tests of Proportion Two-Sample Tests of Center GOODNESS OF FIT The Chi-Squared Goodness-of-Fit Test The Chi-Squared Test of Independence Goodness-of-Fit Tests for Continuous Distributions LINEAR REGRESSION The Simple Linear Regression Model Statistical Inference for Simple Linear Regression Multiple Linear Regression ANALYSIS OF VARIANCE One-Way ANOVA Using lm() for ANOVA ANCOVA Two-Way ANOVA TWO EXTENSIONS OF THE LINEAR MODEL Logistic Regression Nonlinear Models APPENDIX A: GETTING, INSTALLING, AND RUNNING R Installing and Starting R Extending R Using Additional Packages APPENDIX B: GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACES AND R The Windows GUI The Mac OS X GUI Rcdmr APPENDIX C: TEACHING WITH R APPENDIX D: MORE ON GRAPHICS WITH R Low- and High-Level Graphic Functions Creating New Graphics in R APPENDIX E: PROGRAMMING IN R Editing Functions Using Functions Using Files and a Better Editor Object-Oriented Programming with R INDEX
