The code in this repository is a set of files meant for beginners to learn the fundamentals of writing R code. The important part is to make sure you have R and Rstudio installed on your local machine, or have access to an Rstudio server instance.
There are many versions of R. For this training, it doesn’t matter which version you use. However, depending on the project(s) you become involved with in the future, the R version may matter. There are ways to deal with this, but that is beyond the scope of this training.
-
To install R to your local machine follow this link for the most recent release, and click the link corresponding to the operating system your computer is running on.
-
To install Rstudio on your local machine follow this link and download Rstudio Desktop. If you’re using Rstudio Server, and you are already able to access Rstudio Server through your browser, then no downloading or installation will be necessary.
Note If downloading and installing on your local machine you will need admin rights for that machine.
Once everything is installed and working, navigate to the file
dataTypes.R to begin.
