In this workshop, we introduce you to data science in the R programming language. In particular, you use the functionality of the 'tidyverse' package to transform, visualize and model data. The workshop consists of short introductory presentations, followed by elaborate hands-on sessions. At the end of each section, we'll showcase more advances features and functionality. The workshop is designed as a first introduction to R. Zero programming experience is required. By the end of the workshop, you'll have a 'feel' for what R is and what it can do for you. Resources for follow-up self-study are provided. Please make sure you have both R and R studio installed on your laptop prior to the workshop.
