[R] Book on R's Programming Language

[Joshua Wiley]

Hi Matt,

http://www.r-project.org/doc/bib/R-books.html

Lists a variety of books, and seems to include most  (i.e., my
searches through google, amazon, and barnes and noble, didn't really
turn up others) books dedicated to R.  I have always been under the
impression that Programming with Data (the Green Book) is a classic.

http://cran.r-project.org/manuals.html

has the official manuals

Similar questions have been asked several times on this list so you
can also search for previous threads (e.g.,
http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/04/06/0063.html )

Best regards,

Josh
