Errata

Duplicate 'any' in the sentence:

"I would not recommend that any any ..."

"judgement" is spelled judgment, at least in American English, though judgement is common in British English. I'll let you make the call.

Note from the Author or Editor:
Please replace judgement with judgment throughout

The book reads
This arrangement creates a quandry for R whenever R runs a function.

It should read
This arrangement creates a quandary for R whenever R runs a function.

Note from the Author or Editor:
I think the reviewer has spotted an html tag that slipped through to the text. The html tag appears in my email notification ( a <p> tag at the end of the sentence), but the html tag does not appear above in the O'Reilly Errata portal. The tag should be removed.

When describing the first example use of qplot(), there is a sentence which states:

"Together, the vectors x and y describe a set of 10 points."

This sentence should instead read:

"Together, the vectors x and y describe a set of 11 points."

Note from the Author or Editor:
Please change

"Together, the vectors x and y describe a set of 10 points."

to

"Together, the vectors x and y describe a set of 11 points."

The note contains a sentence beginning with:

"To see a different number of rows, give head or tails a second argument..."

"tails" should instead be "tail".

Note from the Author or Editor:
Please change

"To see a different number of rows, give head or tails a second argument"

to

"To see a different number of rows, give head or tail a second argument"

The paragraph reads:

"You can see an object’s attributes with attribute. If you run attribute on the DECK data frame that you created in Part II, you will see:"

The references to the "attribute" function should instead be "attributes". The paragraph should instead read:

"You can see an object’s attributes with attributes. If you run attributes on the DECK data frame..."

Note from the Author or Editor:
Please change

"You can see an object’s attributes with attribute. If you run attribute on the DECK data frame that you created in Part II, you will see:"

to

"You can see an object’s attributes with attributes. If you run attributes on the DECK data frame that you created in Part II, you will see:"

Third sentence reads: "R will prints trace:<the function>..."

"prints" should be "print".

Note from the Author or Editor:
Please change prints to print.

Environment is misspelled... see copy/paste below ...

Then you call the function. R responds by setting up a new runtime environment. This environment will be a child of the function’s origin enviornment. R will copy each of the function’s arguments into the runtime environment and then make the runtime environment the new active environment.

Note from the Author or Editor:
Please change "enviornment" to "environment"

Hi,

I think the figure 1.4 content should read [1] 1 4 3 8 5 12 instead of 1 4 4 6 6 8

Bye

Note from the Author or Editor:
Figure 1-4 should be replaced with an image I can provide if you contact me at grolemund@gmail.com.

tiny typos;
... seem frivilous, think of ...
->
... seem frivolous, think of ...

"The colon operator (+) returns�" should be "The colon operator (:) returns�"

1 + 1 = 1 should be 1 + 1 = 2

Figure 1-4 should be replaced with an image I can provide if you contact me at grolemund@gmail.com.

In the second sentence of the second paragraph from the bottom, the word "function" (written in "code" font) is split between two lines (func... tion). Is it possible to fit this word on one line?

'R packages, which are collections of functions WRITTED by R’s talented community of developers'

should be replaced with

'R packages, which are collections of functions WRITTEN by R’s talented community of developers'

Note from the Author or Editor:
Please replace writted with written

"Numbers covered by a tall bar are no more common than ...." should be "Numbers covered by a tall bar are more common than ...."

The book reads:

sum(num)
## 6

It SHOULD say:

sum(int)
## 6

"quatro" should be spelled "cuatro." It is listed twice in the code.

"or a 1 x 2 x 3 hypercube". Hypercube is probably not the best word for this matrix, since being 3D, the "hyper-" isn't needed, and the sides aren't equal, so not a cube.

Note from the Author or Editor:
Please change "hypercube" to "array"

"array" breaks across lines without hyphen

Note from the Author or Editor:
Please fix

Typo: "[Lists] .. are used to create many more spohisticated types of R objects." should read "... sophisticated".

Note from the Author or Editor:
Please change spohisticated to sophisticated

On the second line of that paragraph, "individually" is misspelled. (It has an extra u.)

"Pristine" is misspelled. (It has an extra i.)

"If a subtask seems complicated, try to divide it again into even subtasks that are even more simple"

should be

"If a subtask seems complicated, try to divide it again into smaller subtasks that are even more simple"

Note from the Author or Editor:
Change "If a subtask seems complicated, try to divide it again into even subtasks that are even more simple" to "If a subtask seems complicated, try to divide it again into smaller subtasks that are even more simple"

Numbers 2 and 3 are out of sequence in the list.

1) Test whether the symbols are three of a kind.

2) Look up the prize for three of a kind based on the common symbol.

3) Test whether the symbols are all bars.

"And when cherries equals three ..." should be "And when cherries equal two ..."

The last example of the play function is missing a double B. It should read:

play()
## "BB" "BB" "BB"
## 25

The second to last paragraph ("On the first run, the for loop...") should end with a period and not a colon.

typo: "(matix-ized?)" should be "(matrix-ized?)"

'In fact, the simulation takes 342,308 seconds to run, which is about 5.7 minutes'

Should be 342.308 seconds.

Note from the Author or Editor:
342,308 needs to be changed to 342.308

In the sentence, "If this is your first time installing a package...", delete the extraneous "of."

It should say: "... choose an online mirror to install from."
