解説
Do you want to use R to tell stories? This book was written for you-whether you already know some R or have never coded before.
Most R texts focus only on programming or statistical theory. Practical R for Mass Communication and Journalism gives you ideas, tools, and techniques for incorporating data and visualizations into your narratives.
You'll see step by step how to:
- Analyze airport flight delays, restaurant inspections, and election results
- Map bank locations, median incomes, and new voting districts
- Compare campaign contributions to final election results
- Extract data from PDFs
- Whip messy data into shape for analysis
- Scrape data from a website
- Create graphics ranging from simple, static charts to interactive visualizations for the Web
If you work or plan to work in a newsroom, government office, non-profit policy organization, or PR office, Practical R for Mass Communication and Journalism will help you use R in your world.
This book has a companion website with code, links to additional resources, and searchable tables by function and task.
