R is one of the most popular and fastest growing programming languages and is the most popular data mining tool in business and academia. One of the key strengths of R is its great versatility for data manipulation, exploration and testing, not to mention its ability to produce publication-ready graphics. This course is for those who already have some experience of using R (e.g. have attended Hodgett and Konstantinidis’s “Introduction to R” training, or completed Data Camp’s online module in R).
