Summary

This is the third, newly revised and extended edition of this successful book (that has already been translated into three languages). Like the previous editions, it is entirely based on the programming language and environment R and is still thoroughly hands-on (with thousands of lines of heavily annotated code for all computations and plots). However, this edition has been updated based on many workshops/bootcamps taught by the author all over the world for the past few years: This edition has been didactically streamlined with regard to its exposition, it adds two new chapters – one on mixed-effects modeling, one on classification and regression trees as well as random forests – plus it features new discussion of curvature, orthogonal and other contrasts, interactions, collinearity, the effects and emmeans packages, autocorrelation/runs, some more bits on programming, writing statistical functions, and simulations, and many practical tips based on 10 years of teaching with these materials.

Available since: 05/10/2021.

If want to enrich your travels with the most popular and useful Chinese phrases and vocabulary close at hand, then pay attention... 
Many Chinese language textbooks are intended mainly for people who study Chinese in formal classes and are based on assumptions that are appropriate primarily for such learners. 
The words and phrases such textbooks introduce in early lessons are often those that help students function in a classroom setting. Such textbooks also assume that the learners’ need to learn to read and write Chinese is as pressing as their need to speak it, so they introduce oral and written skills at the same rate. 
Underlying many such textbooks is also the assumption that they will be taught by a teacher, someone who will manage and guide the students’ learning process. 
Here’s just a tiny fraction of what you’ll discover in this Chinese phrasebook:Exchanging MoneyBuyingDrinks and SnacksIn the CafeteriaThe Noodle StandIn the RestaurantIn the MarketIn the BookstoreTaking the TaxiOn the TrainAsking for DirectionsAsking for the TimeMaking an AppointmentIntroducing YourselfTalking About FamilyPersonal QuestionsPolitely Refusing RequestsDealing with the Delivery CompanyNot Feeling WellGetting Things FixedA Long-distance Phone CallAnd much, much more
