Course Outline
This module gives you a demo of installing R-Studion on your system.
This section shall cover the basic concepts in R, starting from understanding what a variable is and explaining different types of data. You will then know about the different sections, tabs, and elements in R studio. You will also understand how to work with different types of variables later in this section.
Vectors, lists, data frames, matrices, arrays, and factors are the different data structures present in R. You will understand all of these data structures with demonstrated snippets of code in this section.
R language have a rich set of built-in functions already created and defined in the programming framework. You will understand and work with a few in-built functions with demonstrated examples in this section.
The section begins with defining what flow control statements are and then continues with its expression with a demonstrated snippet of code for each control statement. You will also understand how these statements control the execution and flow of codes depending on the conditions defined.
