Trying to use R to do statistics -- graphs, linear regression, t-tests, etc. -- is the best way to get your feet wet. It's ironically not great for data managem

Trying to use R to do statistics -- graphs, linear regression, t-tests, etc. -- is the best way to get your feet wet. It's ironically not great for data management and relations. (Although there are very good packages for that sort of thing: datatable, dplyr, and sqldf all come to mind.)
