Statistical Analysis in R 📊

Welcome to the R programming tutorial for statistical analysis! R is a powerful tool for data analysis, offering a wide range of functions and packages to perform statistical computations. Let's dive into the basics and explore how to leverage R for your data analysis needs.

Key Concepts in Statistical Analysis 📚

  • Descriptive Statistics: Summarize data using measures like mean, median, standard deviation, and variance.
    Example: mean() and sd() functions in R.
  • Inferential Statistics: Make predictions or inferences about a population based on sample data.
    Example: Hypothesis testing with t.test() or anova().
  • Data Visualization: Use plots to understand patterns and trends.
    Example: Histograms (hist()) and boxplots (boxplot()).

Common R Packages for Statistical Analysis 🧮

  • stats: Base package for statistical functions.
  • ggplot2: Advanced data visualization.
  • dplyr: Data manipulation for analysis.
  • tidyverse: Collection of data science tools.

Example Workflow 📝

  1. Load data: data <- read.csv("your_file.csv")
  2. Summary statistics: summary(data)
  3. Plot data: ggplot(data, aes(x = variable)) + geom_histogram()
  4. Perform analysis: t.test(data$group1, data$group2)
