Description:
Are you keen to start using R for your statistics or data analysis, but don’t know where to begin? Look no further! This introductory workshop on R covers all the nuts and bolts you need to get started, including:
- a detailed survey of R’s most important built-in functions (including the key statistical and plotting commands)
- reading and writing data
- creating your own functions
- using RStudio
- tips and tricks for working and coding efficiently
- …and much more!
Short challenge exercises will be used to reinforce key concepts throughout the workshop, and a collection of questions and answers will be provided as a take-away to aid your future study, with follow-up support available.
The workshop will begin from a blank slate – no previous knowledge will be assumed.
Attendees will need to bring along a laptop with up-to-date versions of R and RStudio installed – full details will be sent out post-registration, along with the data files to be used during the session.

£192 (reductions for early booking and RSS members)
