This book is an introduction to metaprogramming in the R language, so you will write programs to manipulate other programs. \u003ci\u003eMetaprogramming in R\u003c\/i\u003e shows you how to treat code as data that you can generate, analyze, or modify. \u003cbr\u003eR is a very high-level language where all operations are functions and all functions are data that can be manipulated. This book shows you how to leverage R's natural flexibility in how function calls and expressions are evaluated, to create small domain-specific languages to extend R within the R language itself. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat You'll Learn\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFind out about the anatomy of a function in R \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLook inside a function call\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWork with R expressions and environments\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManipulate expressions in R\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse substitutions \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cb\u003eWho This Book Is For\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThose with at least some experience with R and certainly for those with experience in other programming languages.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Mailund\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1484228804\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781484228807\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Apress\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/02\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 103\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.25d","brand":"Thomas Mailund","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43936137085183,"sku":"9781484228807","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_f8036bd7-4d70-47c6-8027-db0b619f708a.jpg?v=1681423801","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/metaprogramming-in-r-thomas-mailund-9781484228807","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
