Hi ,

I am new to R and want to learn R programming from scratch. I have
installed R console 1.3.1 and I am going through the HTLP help. What I
am looking for is a lead to some documentation towards learning R
programming and also some exercises towards learning with solutions. Is
ther such a book online documentation?

Thanks,

Ram

An excellent book is:

S Programming  by W. N. Venables and B.D. Ripley, Springer-Verlag, 2000.
ISBN 0-387-98966-8

264 pages; it covers both S/S-Plus and R (matters specific to R are
indicated by "R" in the margin)
