Many introductory books about regression analysis using R have been published. Those books describe how to use, for example, the lm() function of R. The unique feature of this book is that step-by-step it explains the background theory of lm() function of R and helps readers carry out the identification of regression models from simple examples to complex ones.
The prerequisites for readers to read this book are: the basics of differentiation; the basics of vector; i.e. inner product of vectors; the basics of matrix, including product, transpose, inverse, and Eigen values of matrices.
Scripts used in this book can be downloaded from http://www.mybook-pub-site.sakura.ne.jp/multi_variate_analysis/reg_analysis/index.html. This book uses R 3.0.2 for Windows. The software can be downloaded from http://cran.r-project.org/ for free. This book uses the Windows versions of scripts. Mac users only have to change the file path to load data files.
