  • R programming for beginners is meant to introduce you to R programming without the stress. Using R for statistical analysis and data science is becoming increasingly popular. At first, using R and R studio might seem a little intimidating. Watch this video and you'll find that it's not that hard at all. This is a very gentle introduction to R programming.

    Greg you have made R really very simple, I don't know why was I afraid of it. Thank you so much for being here and helping people learn this great piece of programming in the simplest and easiest to practice ways.

    As a long time coder who has heard a lot of buzz about R but never looked into it before, I think the best compliment I can pay you is that in 14 minutes I went from "what is R?" to "I get why people love R"

    My niece is learning to use this for one of her courses in college, so I used this video to help me understand how to help her with her studies. I'm used to C# and Java and languages like that, so the syntax was a little weird for me, but I get it now thanks to your explanation. Very well done!

    I am doing my masterthesis and I was so scared when I heard I need to learn how to use R, because I am absolutely not an IT person and have no clue about coding. I searched here on youtueb for some tutorial videos and I am so glad I found yours, because it is easy to follow. I need this to learn step by step and by the end of this video I kind of enjoyed doing it! Definitely going to watch the others too!

    I was recommended R by an acquaintance after he heard me talk about Excel spreadsheets and graphing. He sent me a lot of good resources, and I still needed extra help, as statistical analysis is not my wheelhouse. Thank you very much for posting this and making it digestible, I suspect I will be coming back to it often for reference. Good work, and I'm glad you were sponsored.

      @coachcee4790 Před 9 měsíci +3

      It's got 4 other features that has it almost directly competing with robust data analysis applications like Power BI and in earlier times it most likely was. The statistical aspect of R is its most widely used purpose. In the real world you would probably be fired from your job if you tried to present the data visualization in R versus a more robust application like Power BI but the option is there and It's too rigid versus more flexible programming languages like python to write applications but the option is there as well. Python offers the same statistical flexibility plus the versatility for front end facing applications. The only reason I'm even interested in R is because Microsoft still considers it the gatekeeper into data science much like powershell is the still the gatekeeper into being a Microsoft Administrator. If your going the AWS/Google route you can get by with Python, Javascript and Bash / Linux only

  • @bosch992

    About 10+ years ago, I was using R extensively. Mostly version 2, and a bit of version 3. I want to get back into it, but I don’t know how much the language and landscape has evolved since then.
    Is R version 4 different in important ways? Is there like a bridging course to get me from R 3 to R 4?
    In the vid you demonstrated the library “tidyverse”. I take it the library is commonly used these days? Are there other important libraries that have emerged in the past 10 years that I need to learn in order to understand R as it’s used today?
    Thanks for the into vid! I’m glad I found your channel!

    Well, [deita] because the vowel in an open syllable is pronounced the same as in the alphabet. But even if one was to agree with [data], it's definitely not [da:ta] because English does not even have the diacritics for long vowels.
    Other than the painful pronunciation, this is a great introductory video, really helpful, thank you.
