Machine Learning for Hackers: Case Studies and Algorithms to Get You Started [Conway, Drew, White, John Myles] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Machine Learning for Hackers: Case Studies and Algorithms to Get You Started

Review: An interesting and easy read - I enjoyed reading this book. Pro's: The text is parsimonious. The examples are interesting. The coding is clever. The book is less expensive and easier to understand than most Springer texts. Con's: A substantial part of the code is peripheral tasks; this can be skipped. Some of the code is out of date. These Con's are trivial. The book is great. I would buy any other books written by these authors.
Review: Ok introduction to R but with bad code - This book is more of an introduction to R then anything to do with Machine Learning.. as a R introduction it's not bad minus the horibad sample code ... which won't even work if you copy and paste it, my advice find a different book there any many, many more accurate and detailed books on R and machine learning

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Learned something new
*by C***S on October 2, 2012*

I learned a little about the R language and how a lot of scientist of physicist use it the write functions to dynamically create graphs to analyze the data they compiled. It also encompasses a lot of the same math you learn in statistics classes which makes sense. I even ended up downloading an R language reference app from the Apple app store to have an object reference of the language.
