R Programming: Setup and Data Processing

This course will be useful to anyone who wants to learn the R programming language, particularly to leverage it for data analysis and data science tasks. You will begin by setting up an R development environment and executing simple code. Then, you'll process atomic data types like characters, numbers, and logical. You'll also process data structures like vectors, factors, and data frames. This is the first course in a multi-course Specialization. All of the courses in this Specialization require that you have R and R Studio installed on a Windows PC. The course setup instructions provided in the first module of this course go into more detail about the hardware and software requirements.
