Chapter 1 Introduction
To Students
This OER book is intended to help students in introductory statistics courses. The intended audience is non-science majors. We do not include formal proofs but instead focus on step-by-step examples and try to explain statistical concepts in everyday terms.
To Instructors
The techniques used in this book are similar to Mathplosion (Williamson and Shloming 2019) but updated to use Bookdown (Xie 2019).
Bookdown is based on the RMarkdown format, see The R Markdown and knitr Book (Xie 2015)
