## What it is
Source repository for the first edition of 'Introduction to Data Science', a free online textbook written in TeX/R Markdown. It is now superseded by a second edition split into two separate repositories.

## Use cases
- learn data science from a free textbook
- find course material for intro data science
- get R code examples for data science
- access a PDF data science book
- teach an introductory data science class

## When to avoid
- you want up-to-date content - use the second edition repositories instead
- you need a software tool rather than a book

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: data-science, documentation, data-visualization
- domain: data-science, education, tutorials
