R: Intermediate Data Manipulation with Tidyverse (Chicago)

Workshop Details

Looking for tools to help you write more readable code in R? Need help with tidying and transforming your dataset? Then come learn about Tidyverse – a set of R packages designed for data science that support common data manipulation and analysis tasks. This workshop covers functions from tidyr, dplyr, forcats, stringr, and lubridate that will help you reshape your dataset, work with two or more datasets, and work with common data types (factors, strings, and datetimes). 

Prerequisites: Basic familiarity with R and the Tidyverse packages at the level of the Data Manipulation with Tidyverse workshop.
