We\u2019ve been asked to provide a short introduction to R and its utility in natural resource management. The result is the e-book, R for Fledglings<\/a><\/strong>. This e-book is targeted to new users of R along the lines of the “Dummies” books. However, unlike the “Dummies” books, the concepts build with each new chapter, so R for Fledglings<\/strong> is intended to be followed sequentially. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few e-book tips are worth mentioning. To read a chapter, just click on the link. Don’t forget that you can control the font size of your web browser by pressing Ctrl + (to enlarge it) or Ctrl – (to shrink it). You may also find it handy to shrink the size of your web browser so that you can have both R and R for Fledglings open side-by-side. Finally, we will likely update R for Fledglings<\/strong> as new functions become available or as we learn new tricks. Make sure that you reading the latest version by refreshing your browser before you begin reading. The first chapter is a must-read — it introduces you to R and R Studio, and tells you how to get started. See you there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
