R Analytics

R Analytics

R language data analysis and visualization toolkit.

Quick Reference

Run R Code

# Run inline code
Rscript -e 'print("Hello R")'

# Run script file
Rscript script.R

# Run with arguments
Rscript script.R arg1 arg2

Package Management

# Update all packages
Rscript -e 'options(repos = c(CRAN = "https://cloud.r-project.org")); update.packages(ask = FALSE, checkBuilt = TRUE)'

# Install package
Rscript -e 'install.packages("tidyverse", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org")'

# Install multiple packages
Rscript -e 'install.packages(c("ggplot2", "dplyr", "tidyr"), repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org")'

Data Analysis Workflow

1. Load Data

# CSV
df %
  filter(column > 10) %>%           # filter rows
  select(col1, col2) %>%            # select columns
  mutate(new_col = col1 * 2) %>%    # create column
  group_by(category) %>%            # group
  summarise(mean_val = mean(value)) # aggregate

3. Visualization (ggplot2)

library(ggplot2)

# Scatter plot
ggplot(df, aes(x = x_col, y = y_col)) +
  geom_point() +
  labs(title = "Title", x = "X Label", y = "Y Label") +
  theme_minimal()

# Bar chart
ggplot(df, aes(x = category, y = value, fill = category)) +
  geom_bar(stat = "identity") +
  theme_minimal()

# Line chart
ggplot(df, aes(x = date, y = value, color = group)) +
  geom_line() +
  theme_minimal()

# Save plot
ggsave("plot.png", width = 10, height = 6, dpi = 300)
ggsave("plot.pdf", width = 10, height = 6)

4. Statistical Analysis

# Summary statistics
summary(df)

# Correlation
cor(df$x, df$y)
cor.test(df$x, df$y)

# Linear regression
model <- lm(y ~ x1 + x2, data = df)
summary(model)

# T-test
t.test(group1, group2)

# ANOVA
aov_result <- aov(value ~ group, data = df)
summary(aov_result)

Common Packages

| Package | Purpose | |---------|---------| | tidyverse | Meta-package: ggplot2, dplyr, tidyr, readr, etc. | | ggplot2 | Visualization | | dplyr | Data manipulation | | tidyr | Data tidying | | readr | Fast CSV reading | | readxl | Excel files | | data.table | Fast data manipulation | | plotly | Interactive plots | | shiny | Web apps | | rmarkdown | Reports |

Output Formats

# Save data
write.csv(df, "output.csv", row.names = FALSE)
readr::write_csv(df, "output.csv")

# Save R object
saveRDS(obj, "data.rds")
obj <- readRDS("data.rds")
