Midwest Big Data Summer School 2022

Modules on R and Graphics

There are two ways you can follow along with the materials:

hands on:
- download the material using the green button on the top right .
- double-click the file Start-here.Rproj to start RStudio with the right material
- go into folder 01-introduction-to-R and open the file 0-getting started.Rmd in the knitr folder.
hands-on (alternative):
- in case you are experiences problems with the installation, you can make use of the RStudio cloud server.
relaxed approach: follow along the slides:
- slides for programming with data
- slides for visualizing data in R

Make sure to have R version 4.x.x installed (newest version is 4.1.3, but any version 4 should be fine)
