RLadies Vancouver

Have you always wanted to get into R but never quite found the right time or place to start?
Come join with fellow R-Ladies to learn R in a laid back, hands-on session as we take the first steps into the R language. This 3-hour session is intended for complete beginners or those who would like to refresh some of the basics we cover. No prior programming knowledge is required to attend.  If you do have some familiarity with R basics you might want to consider attending an advanced R beginner's workshop we plan in the future (stay tuned!).
In this session R-Ladies organizers will introduce you to:
- R and it’s graphical interface RStudio
- Basics of coding in R language
- What are functions and packages
- Loading and inspecting a dataset
- Basics of data wrangling with dplyr package
- Basics of data plotting with ggplot2 package
