授课大纲 - 您将从这门课程中学到什么
R Basics
Regardless of the programming language you use, all share some commonalities. For example, you’ll likely need to perform basic operations on different data types, like applying mathematical equations to numeric data. You’ll also need an environment in which to write your code, anbbd most modern integrated development environments (or IDEs) provide features that make writing code easier, like syntax checking, color coding, and integrated help. This module introduces you to the R language, its common data types, and techniques for manipulating them. You’ll also learn about the role of the R interpreter and how it transforms code into executable objects. Finally, you’ll be introduced to two of the most common IDEs for R development: RStudio and Jupyter Notebook.
Common Data Structures
The R language supports many types of data structures that you can use to organize and store values in your code, including vectors, factors, lists, arrays, matrices, and data frames. Each data structure type serves a specific purpose and can contain specific kinds of data. So, it’s important to understand the differences between them so you can make the right choice based on your scenario.
R Programming Fundamentals
As with most programming languages, R supports coding features that you can use to control the flow of program execution, define functions that can perform specific tasks, work with common data types, like strings and dates, and make your code more robust by intercepting likely errors and handling them before they interrupt the execution of your code.
Working with Data
Data is everywhere! The data you need to analyze may come from a traditional database, but it may also come from a variety of different sources and systems, and it may come to you in one or more formats. For example, your data might be in text, Excel, .JSON, or .XML files. Or it may not be stored in a file at all, but instead lives on the pages of a website. How will you take all these different file formats and load them into your R working environment?

It was very useful course, I made good use of my free time during evenings, I like the fact that there is a project at the end
Very good course, and easy to engage to finish it, thank you
It's an amazing course with very interesting quizzes and assignments. A must for Data Science aspirants.
Very good materials, clear and precise. Very useful for anyone with a knowledge of another programming language and very easy to understand for begineers. Highly recommended.
