Embark on an exciting journey with R as your trusted ally for data science. This comprehensive course will equip you with essential skills to leverage R's power for data manipulation and analysis. The course is suitable even if you have limited R experience, empowering you to perform data science tasks effectively.

The journey starts with R fundamentals to lay a strong foundation. You’ll master the tidyverse to create powerful and readable code. Then, you will explore the import of various data sources, visualization, and best practices before gaining hands-on machine learning experience. Also, you’ll learn version control with Git and GitHub and to optimize your R code for efficient data science workflows.

At course completion, you'll emerge as a confident R data scientist, ready to tackle real-world challenges. You'll be well-equipped to advance your career in data science with R's extensive capabilities in your toolbelt.

Data Science in R: From Basics to Machine Learning

R has six main components: base-R, the R console, CRAN, an IDE, scripts, and the working directory. This lesson will focus on base-R, the R console, scripts, and the IDE. We won't be using any extensions from CRAN yet, and we won't be setting up a working directory---these will be discussed in more detail in the upcoming lessons.




Learn the foundational skills for writing an R script from scratch, such as syntax, variables, and arithmetic operations.
