This is a predominantly  'hands-on' course that will provide the necessary background information and tools to get started with analysing data within the R computing environment. On successful completion, participants will be able to:

• Understand the basics of the R environment (data frames, objects, classes, factors, lists, workspace, installing and loading packages, getting help)
• Read in data from various sources (ASCII files; Excel spreadsheets; CSV files etc.) as well as using built-in data sets.
• Perform basic data manipulations and re-organise raw data into standard formats with the help of in-built packages such as tidyverse and dplyr.
• Create various R objects such as data frames and lists and know how to manipulate these using conditional selection, grouping, sorting, and list functions such as lapply and mapply.
• Use intrinsic functions to transform data and perform basic arithmetic.
• Use R's intrinsic graphics functions to produce high-quality graphics.
• Use the ggplot2 package to create more advanced data visualisations.
• Write simple R programs to perform more complex tasks.
• Undertake basic statistical analyses using R functions and other packages.
