R help - Aug 2004 - introduction slides for beginners

Hi all,

    does anybody have slides for a 1 to 3 hour crash course into R,
that I would be allowed to recycle to show a few people the light?

On the R-website http://cran.r-project.org/other-docs.html
I found several additional books, but no slides.

It might be nice to add  a page with slides, too.

Thank you,
    -Armin

Dear Armin,

I have a variety of materials at
<http://socserv.socsci.mcmaster.ca/jfox/Courses/S-course/index.html>,
though
the slides are minimal; most of the material is in the script files. The
introductory lecture (of seven lectures) takes me two hours.

I hope that this helps,
 John

I have some stuff I used for 5 x 1 hour presentations at

http://www.stat.wisc.edu/~deepayan/SIBS/slides/

meant to complement the first chapter of 'An Introduction to R'. It was
aimed at undergrad students without any Statistics background (they were
supposed to get some in the rest of the course), so it might not be
appropriate for you.
