This chapter demonstrates some basic statistical methods. More importantly, it shows how even in the realm of fairly standard analyses, R differs sharply from the approach used by SAS and SPSS. Since this book is aimed at people who already know SAS or SPSS, I assume you are already familiar with most of these methods. I briefly list each test’s goal and assumptions and how to get R to perform them. For more statistical coverage see Dalgaard’s Introductory Statistics with R [16], or Venable and Ripley’s much more advanced
Modern Applied Statistics
with S [65].
