Programming Basics with R
February 1 @ 4:15 pm – 5:45 pm
You have data and you need a tool to do something with it. Whether you’re a data scientist, political scientist, economist, or biologist, it’s increasingly apparent that data is ever-present and we need to do a little statistics, a little visualization, and a little manipulation of this data. That is precisely what the programming language R is built for. In this workshop, we will cover the basics of getting started with R and R Studio.
Learning Objectives: (You will learn how to)
- Understand the R-Studio environment on the cloud
- Use the console for basic statistics tools
- Produce documents with plots of your data findings
Pre-requisites
