Description
Take your R programming skills to the next level with this short course on the tidyverse!
Do you feel you have a basic knowledge of R but don't yet have the tools or confidence to tackle everyday data science problems? Still turning to MS Excel to manipulate, format and visualise data? Then look no further.
Aimed at beginners who have a basic understanding of R, this course introduces some of the core tools of the tidyverse. It covers a step-by-step guide to the most important functions offered by some of the tidyverse packages, providing students with a comprehensive toolkit to address common data science tasks.
The course covers the following areas:
1) Data manipulation with dplyr (filtering, sorting, creating new variables, summarising data, joining data sets, selecting columns/rows)
2) Data reformatting with tidyr (gathering variables, spreading out variables, separating data in cells)
3) Data visualisation with ggplot2 (scatterplots, boxplots, bar charts, line charts, panels)
4) Linking code efficiently using the magrittr forward pipe operator
