Who this book is for

Having studied economics, I am not a software programmer myself and have written this book for readers new to R and visualization. This book does not delvento complex R code or complex data manipulating techniques, and it is written keeping in mind new and intermediate R users interested in learning about data visualization and data exploration techniques.

The book aims at teaching you the implementation of interactive and animated data visualizations and not just the basic R techniques. However, I have introduced some basic functionalities in Chapter 1, A Simple Guide to R and Chapter 2, Basic and Interactive Plots.

Wherever possible, I have provided references to websites, blogs, and journals, which can be explored to learn more about specific functions, graphics, animations, or even basic functionalities in R.
