    In this handy, practical book you will cover each concept concisely, with many illustrative examples. You'll be introduced to several R data science packages, with examples of how to use each of them.

    In this book, you’ll learn about the following APIs and packages that deal specifically with data science applications: readr, dibble, forecasts, lubridate, stringr, tidyr, magnittr, dplyr, purrr, ggplot2, modelr, and more. After using this handy quick reference guide, you'll have the code, APIs, and insights to write data science-based applications in the R programming language. You'll also be able to carry out data analysis.


    Learn:
    ✓ Import data with readr
    ✓ Work with categories using forcats, time and dates with lubridate, and strings with stringr
    ✓ Format data using tidyr and then transform that data using magrittr and dplyr
    ✓ Write functions with R for data science, data mining, and analytics-based applications
    ✓ Visualize data with ggplot2 and fit data to models using modelr

    Features:
    ✓ The first quick reference of its kind dealing with data science using R
    ✓ Covers the specific APIs and packages that let you build R-based data science applications
    ✓ Also covers how to use these packages to do data analysis using R

    Who This Book Is For:
    Programmers new to R's data science, data mining, and analytics packages. Some prior coding experience with R in general is recommended.
