Manifesto

This class is meant to introduce you to some ideas from mathematics and to show how we can use a computer and some creativity to explore these ideas across a range of situations. We use R with RStudio to do all of our work.

RStudio and R are open source computing and documentation tools that are freely available with immense online documentation. In this spirit, this text is freely available online for download once you have RMarkdown up and running. I hope you download the chapters and use them as a starting place to either alter or copy and paste pieces to begin your own work. The spirit of the materials are to share some basic tools for your subsequent exploration and play.
