Introduce familiar concepts of data manipulation but using R and practice these concepts, bringing them together in a Quarto report
Summary
Based on the hugely popular Introduction to R and R Studio course run by NHS-R Community volunteers.,
The concepts covered in the course, and even some function names, will be familiar to those who use SQL and this course is aimed at those who have not used R/RStudio before or used only very little of it (perhaps running other people’s work for example).
As we work through the course we will be using and exploring Quarto to see how reports that mix text and code can be produced in R as well as be used as a way of managing analysis workflow.
