تفاصيل الدورة
Are you looking forward to enter into the data science world? Or are you a data scientist and want to explore R to make your job easier? If yes, this course is ideal for you.
R is one of the leading languages which is preferred in the data science world. It is an open source programming language and software environment for statistical computing and graphics and is highly extensible. This programming tool is used for performing data import and cleaning, exploration and visualization, statistics and analysis. It is also useful for trading simulations, production, and trading applications.
The aim of the course is to help you learn programming in R as well as to perform data analysis, data visualization, and data manipulation using R.
What is included?
This course is meticulously designed and developed in order to empower you with all the right and relevant information on R. However, I want to highlight that the road ahead may be bumpy on occasions, and some topics may be more challenging than others, but I hope that you will embrace this opportunity and focus on the reward. Remember that throughout this course, we will add many powerful techniques to your arsenal that will help us solve the problems.
Let's take a look at the learning journey. The course begins with installation of R, RStudio and all the necessary R packages. Then, you'll work with some built-in functions in R. Also, you'll work with data and strings. Next, you'll learn core programming, object-oriented programming, and metaprogramming concepts and best practices in it. Moving ahead, you'll learn to create, design, and customize plots with base graphics. Also, you'll understand and perform Univariate analysis. Further, you'll gain knowledge on Chi-sq test, ANOVA, and statistical tests for analyzing numeric and categorical data. Also, you'll perform tasks on these along with a practical example of full scale data analysis project. Finally, you'll learn about the two most popular data manipulation packages, dplyr and data.table which are essential while working with large data and also Pipe operators which will massively increase the code readability.
By the end of the course, you should be able to put your learnings into practical use immediately.
