Where to Learn More {-}
=======================
This reader provides an introduction to the basics of R, but there's lots more
to learn. Fortunately, many R and data science learning resources are available
for free online or through the library.
Here are a few readers and notes created by DataLab staff:
* [README, Write Me!][readme], our workshop about how to organize and document
computing projects.
* [Principles of Data Visualization][data-viz], our workshop about how to
design clear and effective data visualizations.
* [Adventures in Data Science][adventures], our course introducing humanities
undergraduates to data science techniques.
* [My personal teaching notes][notes] from several years of teaching
statistical computing.

[adventures]: https://ucdavisdatalab.github.io/adventures_in_data_science/
[notes]: https://github.com/nick-ulle/teaching-notes
And here are a few books created by others that we've found useful:
* [R for Data Science][r4ds] by Wickham & Grolemund. An introduction to using R
for data science, but with a very heavy focus on Tidyverse packages.
* [The Art of R Programming][art-of-r] by Matloff. A general reference on R
programming.
* [Advanced R][adv-r] by Wickham. A description of how R works at a deeper
level, with many examples of R features that are important for
package/software development.
* [The R Inferno][r-inferno] by Burns. A discussion of the most difficult and
confusing parts of R.

Finally, here are some websites popular in the R community:
* [R Graph Gallery](http://www.r-graph-gallery.com/). Examples of graphs you
can make in R, with code.
* [RStudio Cheat Sheets](https://www.rstudio.com/resources/cheatsheets/). Cheat
sheets for a variety of R tools and packages.
* [R Weekly](https://rweekly.org/). Weekly updates about what's happening in
the R community.
* [R-bloggers](https://www.r-bloggers.com/). An aggregator for blog posts
about R.
