Updated, useful reference for those involved in plant design, covering all aspects of plant layout in broad detail

Data analysis is now part of practically every research project in the life sciences. In this book we use data and computer code to teach the necessary statistical concepts and programming skills to become a data analyst. Instead of showing theory first and then applying it to toy examples, we start with actual applications and describe the theory as it becomes necessary to solve specific challenges. The book includes links to computer code that readers can use to follow along as they program.

En el manual expongo, de forma clara y sencilla, los conceptos básicos de un análisis exploratorio de datos a nivel descriptivo y cómo llevarlo a la práctica con el software estadístico R y datos reales. El libro está pensado para que el lector avance paso a paso en su proceso de auto-aprendizaje, por lo que se proporcionan muchos ejemplos.
