Workshop: Introduction to R for Absolute Beginners

Description

R is an open-source software for statistical computing and graphics. This in-person introductory workshop to R is for people who want to learn this data analysis tool but have little or no experience in any programming languages. This course will be taught by Johns Hopkins Data Management Services.

The first half of this three-hour workshop will focus on some basic concepts of coding, and the second half will have several hands-on activities to learn basic R skills, such as installing R packages, importing and exploring data. Some troubleshooting tips and R resources will be provided at the end of this workshop.
