Introduction to R Programming on Sports Data

Course details

Are you interested in learning about data analysis and machine learning, but don't know where to start? Are you interested in sports and curious to know how analytics can be applied to sports? In the game of football, are you curious as which positions are the most important (other than the quarterback)?

If so, you've come to the right course! In this course, I will show you how easy it is to use the statistical software program R Studio in order to use data from the NFL to answer the question of which positions matter the most in the game of football! I will work you through this project so you learn about R by doing, as opposed to watching boring lectures that cover theory without any applications

My hope is that going over this project will provide the interest and motivation necessary for you to answer your own statistics and data-related questions using the concepts I cover in this course. I want you to become proactive instead of just being spectators and consumers
