Textbook for teaching introductory statistics and econometrics in R to undergraduates I am looking for a good book for teaching introductory statistics and econometrics in R at an undergraduate level.
Is there a commonly recommended text?
 A: For introductory statistics and econometrics I would suggest the following.


*

*Basic Econometrics - Damodar Gujarati

*Econometric Analysis -William Greene
The following two books are introductory statistics and econometrics in R.


*

*Hands On Intermediate Econometrics Using Templates

*Applied Econometrics with R (same as arne's suggestion)


Gujarati and Greene are the best suggestion if you are looking basic econometrics. My friends use the last two books and they are happy about the book.
You can also find more tutorials or handouts in google. I guess the cran document Econometrics in R may be useful.
A: There's a new option written by my humble self: "Using R for Introductory Econometrics"
It is designed to be completely consistent with Jeff Wooldridge's "Introductory Econometrics" in terms of topics, terminology, and and notation.
The full text is available for free online viewing together with the R code and other material at 
http://www.urfie.net/
and 
hardcopies are quite cheap, too. 
Check it out and let me know what you think.
A: I suggest you:

Wooldridge, Jeffrey. Introductory econometrics: A modern approach.
  Cengage Learning, 2012.

that is really simple and good for an initial approach to econometrics.
