R Fundamentals II

Introduction to R for non-programmers

We will first recapitulate the concepts learned in the previous module. Then building on that, you will learn more about plots, including saving graphs in different types of files. Furthermore, you will learn how to write and understand functions, what are the control flow structures in R and how to export data. Installing and using R packages will also be covered.
