R Programming

This document outlines an introduction to R session that will cover both theory and hands-on learning. It assumes some prior programming experience. The session will discuss R's lineage from statistical languages and its usage across industries. Installation instructions are provided for Ubuntu, RStudio, and using R in Jupyter notebooks. The roadmap covers getting started with R, data structures, probability distributions, scripts, looping, functions, and the apply family. A demo on machine learning with R is also planned.

Introduction to R

Session Format

Theory and hands-on will go on side by side.


●

Focuss will be on the data analysis and analytics part.


●

●
Assumptions/Pre-requisite

Familiarity with at least one programming language. (Python, Java,


●

C/C++).
During the session, similarity or differences of R w.r.t. other languages
●

will be discussed.
●
Background & Usage

Lineage from the statistical languages which causes off-bit syntax.


●

Usage in the different industry segments.
