A warm welcome to the R Programming course by Uplatz.
R is a programming language that provides a wide variety of statistical (linear and nonlinear modelling, classical statistical tests, time-series analysis, classification, clustering) and graphical techniques, and is highly extensible.
While there is something called the S language which is often the vehicle of choice for research in statistical methodology, on the other hand R provides an Open Source route to participation in that activity. R is nothing but an integrated suite of software facilities for data manipulation, calculation and graphical display. It includes an effective data handling and storage facility, a suite of operators for calculations on arrays, in particular matrices, a large, coherent, integrated collection of intermediate tools for data analysis, graphical facilities for data analysis and display either on-screen or on hardcopy, and a well-developed, simple and effective programming language which includes conditionals, loops, user-defined recursive functions and input and output facilities.
R can be considered as an integrated version of a programming language and software environment for statistical analysis, graphics representation and reporting. R was created by Ross Ihaka and Robert Gentleman at the University of Auckland, New Zealand, and is currently developed by the R Development Core Team. R is freely available under the GNU General Public License, and pre-compiled binary versions are provided for various operating systems like Linux, Windows and Mac. This programming language was named R, based on the first letter of first name of the two R authors (Robert Gentleman and Ross Ihaka), and partly a play on the name of the Bell Labs Language S.
This R Programming course by Uplatz is designed for software programmers, statisticians and data miners who are looking forward for developing statistical software using R programming. Even if you are a beginner, this R course is the perfect place to start. If you are trying to understand the R programming language as a beginner, this R Programming course will provide you enough understanding on almost all the concepts of the language from where you can take yourself to higher levels of expertise. This R tutorial will provide you an opportunity to take a deep-dive into R programming and build your R skills from scratch. To get the most out of the R programming training, you would need to practice as you proceed with the tutorials.
After successful completion of the R Programming training course you will be able to:
Master the use of the R and RStudio interactive environment
Expand R by installing R packages
Explore and understand how to use the R documentation
Read Structured Data into R from various sources
Understand the different data types in R
Understand the different data structures in R
R programming constructs - variables, functions, string manipulation, loops, etc.
Conduct decision-making using R
Able to do Data and file management in R
Packages in R
Plotting and Visualization in R
and more...
