R For College Mathematics and Statistics
Autor Thomas Pfaffen Limba Engleză Hardback – 22 apr 2019
R has the potential to help students learn mathematics due to the need for precision, understanding of symbols and functions, and the logical nature of code. Moreover, the text provides students the opportunity for experimenting with concepts in any mathematics course.
Features:
- Does not require previous experience with R
- Promotes the use of R in typical mathematics and statistics course work
- Organized by mathematics topics
- Utilizes an example-based approach
- Chapters are largely independent of each other

Notă biografică
Thomas J. Pfaff is a professor of Mathematics at Ithaca College and served as the all college Honors Program director for three years. He was the PI on three-year NSF grant Multidisciplinary Sustainability Modules: Integrating STEM Courses. The scope of his publications range from traditional mathematics to applied mathematics, including the SABR newsletter, and sustainability to essays about higher education. His blog sustainbilitymath.org provides resources to incorporate sustainability ideas into mathematics courses and he is currently interested in using R for student projects in all courses.
Descriere
R can be used consistently in the college mathematics classroom. We no longer have to limit ourselves to ``nice'' functions in calculus classes. We can require reports and homework with graphs. We can do simulations and experiments. R can be useful for student projects, for creating graphics for teaching, as well as for scholarly work.
