Probability and mathematical statistics: theory, applications, and practice in R

摘要

Back when I was an undergraduate, I took a course in numerical recipes (in the C programming language). That course introduced me to the approximation of answers to questions that, often times, cannot be solved through analytical means. My sense is that this book will do the same for readers who need a thorough grounding in numerical recipes for understanding probability and statistics empirically. R is a wonderful programming language for statistical recipes.
