R has spread deep into the private sector and can be found in the production pipelines at some of the most advanced and successful enterprises. 

Learn the fundamentals of data analysis in the second edition of Data Analysis with R, authored by data scientist Tony Fischetti , along with several intermediate to advanced methods and techniques ranging from classification and regression to Bayesian methods and MCMC, which can be put to immediate use.

Starting with the basics of R and statistical reasoning, this book dives into advanced predictive analytics, showing how to apply those techniques to real-world data though with real-world examples.

This book is engineered to be an invaluable resource through many stages of anyone’s career as a data analyst.

Who this book is for:

Budding data scientists and data analysts who are new to the concept of data analysis, or who want to build efficient analytical models in R will find this book to be useful. No prior exposure to data analysis is needed, although a fundamental understanding of the R programming language is required to get the best out of this book.
