What is it about

For R beginners data importing and getting it into the appropriate format for further analyses can be one of the most time consuming and daunting tasks.
With that in mind, this step-by-step tutorial will cover the basics of data manipulation in R such as:

• Importing and saving data with different formats
• Basic commands for data transformation (e.g. subset/aggregating data by subgroup, reshaping data, merge datasets, deal with NAs, etc.)
• Basic plots
• Solve frequent errors that can occur at each stage of the process

When and where

We will meet on the 14th of February from 17:00 to 19:00 in Room ZB18 in the Zoology Building.

How to prepare

All you will need is a laptop with R installed (you can download it here).

Hope to see you there!
