Data Science with R

SKILL PATH

Data Science with R

Data science integrates statistics, machine learning, computer science, domain knowledge, and data visualization techniques to analyze and interpret complex datasets. R is uniquely positioned as the go-to tool for data scientists because it is easy to deal with complex statistical analyses and organize datasets. It is very important in today’s world, proving to be crucial in many fields. This Skill Path starts with an introduction and real-world applications of data science. It covers R fundamentals, data management and visualization with ggplot2, and teaches you how to build analytical models. You’ll learn essential machine learning techniques like supervised learning (including classification), data cleaning, statistical analysis, and visualization. You’ll also explore various plotting techniques and linear models, alongside advanced statistical analysis and data wrangling. By the end of this Skill Path, you’ll gain comprehensive skills to effectively use R for robust data manipulation and analysis.

I prefer Educative courses because they have a nice mix of text & images. I find that with full video courses, it can often be too easy to go into passive learning mode.
