This repository contains teaching materials for an introductory workshop to R programming. It is designed for those with minimal coding experience, and is meant to be a crash-course where you get a taste of what R can do. An overview of the workshop and slide decks can be viewed in this blogpost.
Please note that this course is not meant to be a lesson in statistics, or to substitute practicing the fundamentals of the language. There are many online resources in R which I highly recommend. Links to these materials are provided in the notes and slides.
- Getting started
- General syntax
- Data structures
- Functions
- The tidyverse
- Useful resources
