Install latest R (3.2.5) on Debian Jessie

Installing R on Ubuntu/Debian is quite painful, especially when you want to install the latest version. I have no clue why this situation stills for a long time, but this is a way to work around. On terminal: ```bash Appends the CRAN repository to your sources.list file You could replace jessie-cran3 by the newer one Find the correct value at https://cloud.r-project.org/ sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://cran.rstudio.com/bin/linux/debian jessie-cran3/" >> /etc/apt/sources.list' Adds the CRAN GPG key, which is used to sign the R packages for security. sudo apt-key adv --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-key 381BA480 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install r-base r-base-dev ``` Installing h2o : ```bash to retrieve curl-config otherwise you may have a problem with RCurl sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev ``` R install.packages ("h2o")

Testing the difference between two correlations in R

Introduction Correlation is the measurement to measure how two datasets increase or decrease together. It's a real number range from -1 (i.e, when one dataset increases, another one decreases and vice versa) to +1 (i.e, these two datasets increase or decrease together). Value 0 means there is no relationship between two datasets. Calculating correlation Calculating correlation of two datasets in R is quite straightforward: In R: > x = c (1,5,2,6,7) > y = c (2,4,3,9,-5) > cor(x,y) [1] -0.1459338 Usually, a single value does not say much in statistics. You need a confidence level. > cor.test (x, y) Pearson's product-moment correlation data:  x and y t = -0.2555, df = 3, p-value = 0.8149 alternative hypothesis: true correlation is not equal to 0 95 percent confidence interval:  -0.9109173  0.8451475 sample estimates:        cor  -0.1459338  The function 'cor.test' will gives you the correlation, ...

Beginning R: An Introduction to Statistical Programming

DOWNLOAD Book Description Release date:  October 17, 2012   | ISBN-10:  1430245549  | ISBN-13:  978-1430245544   | Edition:  1 Beginning R: An Introduction to Statistical Programming is a hands-on book showing how to use the R language, write and save R scripts, build and import data files, and write your own custom statistical functions. R is a powerful open-source implementation of the statistical language S, which was developed by AT&T. R has eclipsed S and the commercially-available S-Plus language, and has become the de facto standard for doing, teaching, and learning computational statistics. R is both an object-oriented language and a functional language that is easy to learn, easy to use, and completely free. A large community of dedicated R users and programmers provides an excellent source of R code, functions, and data sets. R is also becoming adopted into commercial tools such as Oracle Database. Your investment in learnin...
