In this online course, you will be introduced to the R programming language. It covers topics such as basic syntax, working with data, data visualization, and writing and debugging code. The course is designed for beginners with little or no programming experience.
All course material is provided in English. Since the course is short (3 Credits) and given completely online at reduced study pace, you can combine this course with your other studies or work.
In order to read this course, you must have access to a computer to install and run R on.
This course can be taken as a standalone course or be combined with the online course "Data Analytics with R". While this course primarily covers the fundamentals of programming in R, the other course places a greater emphasis on utilizing R for data analysis.
