R devel - Feb 2009 - R tutorial

Dear all,

I have just found a 'good' tutorial R for datamining. I think it  
should be on the contributed docs.
http://cran.r-project.org/other-docs.html

Here is the link
http://www.liaad.up.pt/~ltorgo/DataMiningWithR/

What do you think?

Kind regards

Christophe

A quick glance indicates that the last updates were in 2003.   Most
introductory material from then would still apply but details may have
changed and often there are now better ways of doing things than there
were then.

Do you know if the author has plans for updating the book at all?

Looks intersting (although may be outdated as Doug already
mentioned). In any case, we don't simply "harvest" docs off the
web,
we only put docs on CRAN which get sent to us by the original
authors. So if you want to see it on CRAN, please contact the author
(and perhaps ask for the status while doing so).

Best,
Fritz
