From Excel to R (September 2024)
A 2-day introductory course targeted towards SUND researchers with no (or very limited) experience in R
The course will spend time on making participants familiar with Rstudio, directory paths, scripts, R-projects, help functions, shortcuts, etc., to ensure that the users will have a solid understanding of the practicals before diving into using the scripting language itself.
The course is taught mainly using the R-framework tidyverse, a variety of R-functions and syntax which make data-wrangling much more intuitive for first time R-users.
Tidyverse will form the basis for the other major focal point of the course, that is, plotting with ggplot2.
The outcome of the course is to provide participants with the basic skills for manipulating and setting up data for visualisation.
