Críticas

From the reviews: JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN STATISTICAL ASSOCIATION "True to its title, this is an introductory book on S-PLUS that even first-time users will find accessible, informative, and easy to follow. The book originates from lectures, and it retains the clarity of exposition of a well-organized coursean excellent introductory reference for first-year graduate students in statistics, because it provides not only the necessary information to get them started using the point-and-click GUI, but also an introduction to the use of the command line and to more advanced concepts, such as programming, object-oriented programming, and the use of Trellis graphics. All the while, the book avoids the overwhelming complexities typical of a software manual, and the few, well-thought-out exercises (with careful solutions) at the end of each chapter supply the motivation to explore more advanced topics." SOCIOLOGICAL METHODS & RESEARCH From the second edition: "Krause and Olson rely very heavily on the idea that it is best to show how something is done before explaining its more abstract aspects. With their clear, step-by-step instructions, this should be quite effective. There are many useful tips throughout the book and a collection of hints and practical topics in one chapterFor those new to S-PLUS, Krause and Olson have provided an invaluable starting point. For the instructor seeking a single volume that introduces the basics of the powerful data analysis abilities in S-PLUS that lie beneath the GUI and that provides a good grasp of its unified approach to statistics and integrated graphics, the only choice is Krause and Olson. Moreover, by making S-PLUS so accessible, Krauseand Olson expand the audience for whom S-PLUS is an appropriate environment for their introduction to data analysis." TECHNOMETRICS "Its inclusion of GUI coverage makes it a good choice for any statistician who wants to get started with S-PLUS."

Reseña del editor

This book explains the basics of S-PLUS in a clear style at a level suitable for people with little computing or statistical knowledge. Unlike the S-PLUS manuals, it is not comprehensive, but instead introduces the most important ideas of S-PLUS through the use of many examples. Each chapter also includes a collection of exercises that are accompanied by fully worked-out solutions and detailed comments. The volume is rounded off with practical hints on how efficient work can be performed in S-PLUS. The book is well suited for self-study and as a textbook. The third edition is based on S-PLUS Version 6 for Windows and Unix and has been completely updated. It covers the underlying S Version 4 and the graphical user interfaces for Windows and Unix. A new section of the details of factor objects has been added, Trellis graphs are used in more depth, and new exercises (and solutions) were written. The book serves equally well as an introduction to the R system, and concludes with a comparison of S-PLUS and R.
