Every professional needs to perform statistical analysis in some form of the other. In order to perform this task various software tools are available. Majority of them are paid software. R programming which is an open source tool can be used to perform statistical analysis. Since it is an open source tool many front end GUI’s are available to make the job easier for the user. In this book the most popular GUI RStudio is used. RStudio is a most powerful GUI front end for R programming which has been designed to use all the features of this language with ease.
