商品描述

Providing key information on how to work with research data, Introduction to Data Technologies presents ideas and techniques for performing critical, behind-the-scenes tasks that take up so much time and effort yet typically receive little attention in formal education. With a focus on computational tools, the book shows readers how to improve their awareness of what tasks can be achieved and describes the correct approach to perform these tasks.

Practical examples demonstrate the most important points
The author first discusses how to write computer code using HTML as a concrete example. He then covers a variety of data storage topics, including different file formats, XML, and the structure and design issues of relational databases. After illustrating how to extract data from a relational database using SQL, the book presents tools and techniques for searching, sorting, tabulating, and manipulating data. It also introduces some very basic programming concepts as well as the R language for statistical computing. Each of these topics has supporting chapters that offer reference material on HTML, CSS, XML, DTD, SQL, R, and regular expressions.

One-stop shop of introductory computing information
Written by a member of the R Development Core Team, this resource shows readers how to apply data technologies to tasks within a research setting. Collecting material otherwise scattered across many books and the web, it explores how to publish information via the web, how to access information stored in different formats, and how to write small programs to automate simple, repetitive tasks.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

《資料科技入門》提供了關於如何處理研究數據的關鍵信息,介紹了在正式教育中往往被忽視但卻佔用大量時間和精力的重要背景任務的想法和技巧。本書著重於計算工具,向讀者展示如何提高對任務可達成性的認識,並描述了執行這些任務的正確方法。

實際示例演示了最重要的要點。作者首先討論了如何使用HTML編寫計算機代碼,並涵蓋了各種數據存儲主題,包括不同的文件格式、XML以及關聯數據庫的結構和設計問題。在演示如何使用SQL從關聯數據庫中提取數據之後,本書介紹了搜索、排序、制表和操作數據的工具和技術。它還介紹了一些非常基本的編程概念以及用於統計計算的R語言。這些主題中的每一個都有支持章節,提供HTML、CSS、XML、DTD、SQL、R和正則表達式的參考資料。

這本書是一站式的入門計算資訊資源。作者是R開發核心團隊的成員,本書向讀者展示如何將資料科技應用於研究環境中的任務。它收集了散落在許多書籍和網絡上的資料,探討了如何通過網絡發布信息,如何訪問不同格式的存儲信息,以及如何編寫小程序來自動執行簡單重複的任務。
