[R] Fwd: Functional programming and R: Recommendations?

[Joshua Wiley]

Hello,

You can find a list of some R books here
http://www.r-project.org/doc/bib/R-books.html.  I found Software for
Data Analysis particularly helpful for learning about how R worked and
some of the concepts.

Here is the reference and a link to it at Amazon
John M. Chambers. Software for Data Analysis: Programming with R.
Springer, New York, 2008. ISBN 978-0-387-75935-7

http://www.amazon.de/Software-Data-Analysis-Programming-Statistics/dp/0387759352/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books-intl-de&qid=1278226949&sr=8-1

Cheers,

Josh
