Who this book is for

This book is intended for those who want to learn how to perform some machine learning using R, in order to gain insight from their data and to find the solution to some real-life problems. Perhaps you already know a bit about machine learning but have never used R, or perhaps you know a little R but are new to machine learning. In either case, this book will get you up and running quickly. It would be helpful to have a bit of familiarity with basic programming concepts, but no prior experience is required.
