Hi!
I am a post graduate in Statistics. I want to learn R language, but am very
confused as to how to begin systematically. I need to learn R language from
Statistics point of view e.g. I need to fit distributions to data or run
regression analysis etc. No doubt there are so many articles available on
internet. But can someone guide me as to how do I begin and go on improving
myself SYSTEMATICALLY?
Hence, please guide me as to how should I start learning R language? What should
I read first etc.
Thanks in advance,
Sagga K

There are many books, but if I had to choose one that teaches R and teaches
statistics at the same time (Yes, you already know stats, so it will be that
much easier) I'd choose Peter Dalgaard's book, Introductory Statistics
with
R. It's exceptionally well written, easy to follow, and will systematically
teach you R. It's paperback, not too expensive and available at Amazon.
Start at the front, work all the way through it and you will be delighted
with the results.
