help for beginner
Have you looked at the teaching resources on the CRAN website? If not, take a look at the "Contributed" link under Documentation. There are also numerous published texts that you might find helpful, eg as sources of examples. Many of the help files for specific functions have examples, and R has numerous datasets, both in the base package and in other packages. albyn

Dear all, I am going to teach Probability and Statistics for engineering students. I probably use the book "Probability and Statistics for engineeriing and the sciences" by J. L. Devore. And I am going to use R for the course. This is the first time for me to try to use R. (Before I just use Excel). Could you please be so kind to help me for anything concerning to a beginner, especially: 1) Which packages should I install with the standard R? 2) Can I find some where demo files of teaching or script files concerning to the course. 3) If there is any help already had in the forum about these starting steps, please point out to me such that I can read more. 4) Is there anyone using the same textbook or similar one of mine such that we can exchange teaching experients on the course. Thank you very much in advances. Looking forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Nguyen [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
