This is a great read. But left me thinking I'm missing in the fundamentals. Can you recommend a book (or other posts) on statistics fundementals for programmers?


If no one actually knowledgeable answers, I'll say I liked what I read of Doing Bayesian Data Analysis -- early partial draft here: https://faculty.washington.edu/jmiyamot/p548/kruschkejk%20ba...

I didn't persevere because the R language rubs me the wrong way and I'd be comfier with Python or Haskell or something. http://camdavidsonpilon.github.io/Probabilistic-Programming-... looks promising in that vein, but I haven't read it.
