This is a work-in-progress [course website](https://fanwangecon.github.io/Stat4Econ/) for Introductory Statistics for Undergraduate Students, produced by [Fan](https://fanwangecon.github.io/). Course covers a limited subset of topics from *Statistics for Business and Economics* (Anderson Sweeney Williams Camm Cochran 12e).

R is used. Packages from [Tidyverse](https://www.tidyverse.org/) [@R-tidyverse]  are used, including [tibble](https://tibble.tidyverse.org/) [@R-tibble] for framing data, [tidyr](https://dplyr.tidyverse.org/) [@R-tidyr] and [dplyr](https://dplyr.tidyverse.org/) [@R-dplyr] for reshaping data and aggregating statistics, [ggplot2](https://ggplot2.tidyverse.org/) [@R-ggplot2] for graphing, and [readr](https://readr.tidyverse.org/) [@R-readr] for file reading and writing. Materials are presented as R, RMD, PDF and HTML files. To obtain all codes and raw files, see [here](https://fanwangecon.github.io/Stat4Econ/docs/gitsetup.html) for github set up.
