Setup
To participate in this Workshop, please install the following software,
complete the R courses for beginners,
and let us know if you need any help before attending.
Install R and RStudio
R is a free and open-source programming
language that is particularly powerful for data exploration, visualization, and
statistical analysis. We use RStudio
to interact with R.
Windows
Please download R for Windows
from CRAN to install R, and
also install the RStudio IDE.
If you have separate user and admin accounts, please run the installers as an
administrator by right-clicking on the .exe file and selecting "Run as administrator"
instead of double-clicking. Otherwise, problems may arise later when installing R packages.
Video Tutorial
Mac OS X
Please download R for macOS
from CRAN to install R, and also install
the RStudio IDE.
Video Tutorial
Linux (Debian, Fedora/Redhat, Ubuntu)
Please download the binary files for your distribution from
CRAN to install R, or use a package manager
(e.g. run sudo apt-get install r-base for Debian/Ubuntu and run
sudo yum install R for Fedora/Redhat). Additionally, please install the
RStudio IDE.
R for beginners
To follow the workshop, you must have a basic understanding of R.
Before attending the workshop, please go through the following courses:
- Introduction to R (1)
- Introduction to R (2)
- Programming with R
