Description

This is an introductory course to R programming.
The course is offered in 3 slow-paced practicums for absolute beginners. The goal is to offer a good base with a lot of hands on exercises.
We will use R Studio on the server of the CRG.

    • Basics of R
      Syntax, special characters, create an object, manipulate the object, simple arithmetics.
    • Functions usage in R
      Arguments. Get help.
    • R scripts: write and save commands, run them as a block. Comment code.
    • Data types.
    • Vectors
      Basic (and most important) data structure in R. We will learn how to create, modify, subset, manipulate, compare vectors.
    • Input / output
      Reading in and writing out. Changing directory.
    • Introduction to factors: categorical vectors.
    • Missing values: how to deal with NA values.
