Intro to Data Manipulation in R; Into the Tidyverse

Manipulate data with simple and readable commands using the sentence-like syntax of the Tidyverse. R is a statistical and functional programming language, popular for data science. The Tidyverse builds on R and replaces many components with similar but improved versions that make Data Science even easier. This workshop will focus on the "Grammar of Data Manipulation" in the dplyr package.

No knowledge of R or programming necessary, but previous "Into the Tidyverse" workshops will be helpful.

Requirements:

  • A laptop with a recent version of R and RStudio (Free). Please install the necessary software prior to attending.

This workshop is part of a series of workshops by SciProg. SciProg—short for Scientific Programming Study Group—is dedicated to building a community of SFU researchers who perform computational data analysis as part of their academic work. SciProg promotes skill sharing and collaboration by (1) organizing 60 to 90-minute interactive workshops covering a wide range of software tools, (2) providing Q&A sessions for peer-to-peer assistance and collaboration, and (3) bringing researchers together at social events like Hacky Hours.
