R语言预测分析的经典教材，第二版。这本书很小众，其实内容相当好，（从入门角度讲）实践性是比较强的，可以和主讲具体领域算法的书互为补充。

和读之前的幻想的有点不太一样，确实非常的 “practical”。大段大段的 code blocks 手把手教你用一些相对基础的 r package 和作者自己写的 package。算法的介绍上更多是直觉而不是细节。可以想像如果刚刚接触一点 r 就来看这本书应该可以养成很好的习惯。看着作者的 code 再回想自己写 thesis 时候的那些 code， 只可惜相逢恨晚。

Supplemental textbook for Darcy's course "Data Programming with R". Nice layouts, but only used for reference for a while.
