Overview
Key facts
- We will learn how to make descriptive statistics, how to group data, and how to explore a given dataset. Radboud University's Introduction to R course puts strong emphasis on visualization components and we will learn to use the ggplot2 package to produce wonderful looking graphs (as an example, most of the Financial Times' charts are made with R in ggplot2).
- Engage in hands-on exercises and real-world case studies that reinforce your understanding and empower you to apply R confidently. This interactive course combines theory with practical applications, ensuring participants have a solid grasp of R's data manipulation, analysis, and visualization.
Programme Structure
Course include:
- As part of learning a programming language, it is inevitable that we must learn how to write our own functions.
- It is not the most intuitive part, and I will focus on making it as accessible as possible without relying on too much computer science/programming jargon.
- Alongside this, we’ll look at a few statistical applications in R (t-test and OLS regression).
