Statistical Computing and Presentation Using R

3 credits

This course introduces students to the R language as a tool for analyzing data and presenting the results. Module 1 will cover the basics of using R and presenting the results of descriptive analysis, with an emphasis on the use of graphs and tables. In Module 2, students will learn R language more deeply by conducting simple small-scale simulation studies to empirically investigate the behavior of statistical methods. In Module 3, students will use what they learned in the previous modules to write the results section of a manuscript.
