In contrast to the text, the R code in the chunks, and all files used in examples, data and R scripts are available under GPL >= 2.0.0 as part of R Package 'learnrbook' both through CRAN and the R-Universe, and also in a separate repository here at GitHub: https://github.com/aphalo/learnrbook-pkg. These can be reused as allowed by the GPL.
Building the PDF requires knitr, XeLaTeX, LaTeX packages available at CTAN, the Lucida fonts as distributed by TUG, several R packages, and to diasble evaluation of the code in one section of Chapter 10 that connects via USB to a YoctoPuce sensor and logger module. The code is known to work with MikTeX but other distributions should also work.
