Modern Data Science with R, 2/e

From a review of the first edition: "Modern Data Science with R... is rich with examples and is guided by a strong narrative voice. What's more, it presents an organizing framework that makes a convincing argument that data science is a course distinct from applied statistics" (The American Statistician).

Modern Data Science with R is a comprehensive data science textbook for undergraduates that incorporates statistical and computational thinking to solve real-world data problems. Rather than focus exclusively on case studies or programming syntax, this book illustrates how statistical programming in the state-of-the-art R/RStudio computing environment can be leveraged to extract meaningful information from a variety of data in the service of addressing compelling questions.

The second edition is updated to reflect the growing influence of the tidyverse set of packages. All code in the book has been revised and styled to be more readable and easier to understand. New functionality from packages like sf, purrr, tidymodels, and tidytext is now integrated into the text. All chapters have been revised, and several have been split, re-organized, or re-imagined to meet the shifting landscape of best practice.

《現代R語言資料科學》是一本全面的資料科學教科書，針對大學生設計，結合統計和計算思維，解決現實世界的資料問題。這本書不僅僅著重於案例研究或程式語法，還展示了如何在最先進的R/RStudio計算環境中進行統計編程，以從各種數據中提取有意義的信息，以解決引人入勝的問題。

第二版更新了以tidyverse套件集的影響力。書中的所有代碼都經過修訂和排版，以提高可讀性和易理解性。來自sf、purrr、tidymodels和tidytext等套件的新功能現已整合到文本中。所有章節都經過修訂，並且有幾個章節進行了拆分、重新組織或重新設計，以滿足最佳實踐的變化。
