Welcome on our course webpage!

This is the place where all the files needed for our tutorials will be linked. Additionally, here you will always find any important information regarding our classes.

The first thing to do is to get familiar with the ‘Materials’ section.

Project Information

The final deadline for your projects will be at the end of the semester, but it is advisable to get started as soon as possible. I will provide you with all the project details at a later date. For now, concentrate on choosing your project topic and locating a suitable dataset in .csv or .xlsx format, which is the most user-friendly option. Think about what genuinely interests you and what you can effectively present through data in the form of a brief article with a model and visualizations. Ensure your article addresses a specific problem or problems rather than merely presenting the dataset. Below, you’ll find some sources for datasets that might assist you in finding a suitable one:

To set up the installation, follow this tutorial:

 

Basics of R

 

To learn the very basics of using R and RStudio, which were covered in our first meeting, you can watch the following videos:

Additionally, you can follow a very useful R tutorial in the swirl package. You can find more information about swirl here:

I recommend starting with this part:

 1: R Programming: The basics of programming in R
 

Furthermore, if you really want to delve into R basics, I recommend reading the relevant chapter from Kruschke’s book, “Doing Bayesian Data Analysis”:
