Data Analysis using R and RStudio
Description
The powerful, free and open-source R statistical environment is becoming the statistical tool of choice for increasing numbers of scientists. Students on this course will learn how to easily import their data into R, and how to then manage, manipulate, explore, graph and statistically analyse their data using R and RStudio (a free software application with a more user-friendly interface for working in R). They will also learn how to select appropriate statistical models for their data, and how to design and write basic programs in the R language.
