A gentle yet detailed book for beginner programmers. A great book for those who know they'll be getting up to some programming in R but who are very new to programming in general. The book's chapters are filled with content on the syntax, usage, and 'best practice' guidelines. The examples guide the reader in a step-by-step fashion to maximise understanding. An especially unique chapter providing examples on things you can do in R that you might've otherwise done in Excel is one of its stand-out features.
