The course introduces students to programming, data management, and analysis with R. Through a series of hands-on lab exercises, students learn to work with a variety of data formats and use R's programming language and associated packages to effectively manage and analyze their data, with an emphasis on data exploration and visualization. While there are no prerequisites, a basic familiarity with computing tools, an understanding of descriptive statistics, and a willingness to make mistakes and learn from them is expected. |
