R for Data Analytics

Statistical computing is employed within a diverse range of industries. In recent years, an open source project, R, has emerged as the preeminent statistical computing platform. With its unsurpassed library of freely available packages, R is capable of addressing almost every statistical inference problem. In this course, you will learn the most commonly-used (roughly 100) functions and operators from the R Base Package, which serves as the fundamental tools for accessing data from multiple sources, manipulating different types of R objects, performing character manipulation, and...

Statistics allows us to collect, analyze, and interpret data. The R programming language is one of the most widely-used tools for data analysis and statistical programming. Its easy to learn syntax, built-in statistical functions, and powerful graphing capabilities make it an ideal tool to learn and apply statistical concepts. In this course, you will master the most widely used statistical methods, while also learning to design efficient and informative studies, to perform statistical analyses using R, and to critique the statistical methods used in published studies. No prior knowledge...

Data management and manipulation is an essential task for data scientists who deal with data on a day-to-day basis. In recent years, many R packages were developed to tackle a wide variety of data science challenges. The focus of this course is the tidyverse suite of packages, which contain a large variety of tools to efficiently manage complex and big data. The materials in this course are essential for developing robust and efficient R programs in the data science field. At the end of this course, students will be able to work independently to solve common data management tasks by...

One of the reasons the R language has become a popular for analytics is because of its powerful functionality in its plotting systems. One can easily generate a high-quality and publication-ready figure in R without having to put too much effort in adjusting the parameters of R graphic functions. In this course, students will learn how to generate different types of figures, such as histograms, bar plots, scatter plots, line plots, etc. In addition to exploring the different R plotting systems, we will focus on the ggplot2 plotting system, which contains the latest graphing techniques in...
