Programming With Data: A Guide to the S Language


Book: Programming With Data: A Guide to the S Language

This is one of the definitive books on programming with R and S, by the architect of S. It alternates between the esoterica of programming and brilliant explanations of how S and R work.

Chambers more recent book Software for Data Analysis (Springer, 2008) appears to be a re-working and updating of Programming With Data, bringing the content into focus on R.


Its call number at the University of Pittsburgh is
