Intermediate R is the next stop on your journey in mastering the R programming language. In this R training, you will learn about conditional statements, loops, and functions to power your own R scripts. Next, make your R code more efficient and readable using the apply functions. Finally, the utilities chapter gets you up to speed with regular expressions in R, data structure manipulations, and times and dates. This course will allow you to take the next step in advancing your overall knowledge and capabilities while programming in R.

Continue your journey to becoming an R ninja by learning about conditional statements, loops, and vector functions.

Discover conditional statements, loops, and functions to power your own R scripts, and learn to make your R code more efficient using the apply functions.

In this interactive tutorial, you will learn how to perform sophisticated dplyr techniques to carry out your data manipulation with R. First you will master the five verbs of R data manipulation with dplyr: select, mutate, filter, arrange and summarise. Next, you will learn how you can chain your dplyr operations using the pipe operator of the magrittr package. In the final section, the focus is on practicing how to subset your data using the group_by function, and how you can access data stored outside of R in a database. All said and done, you will be familiar with data manipulation tools and techniques that will allow you to efficiently manipulate data.

Master techniques for data manipulation using the select, mutate, filter, arrange, and summarise functions in dplyr.

Learn how to manipulate data in R with the easy and  intuitive Dplyr syntax--from summarizing to subsetting data.--from our leading course taught by RStudio.

Data Manipulation in R with dplyr

Importing data into R should be the easiest step in your analysis. Unfortunately, that is almost never the case. Data can come in many formats, ranging from .csv and text files, to statistical software files, to databases and HTML data. Knowing which approach to use is key to getting started with the actual analysis.
In this course, you’ll start by learning how to read .csv and text files in R. You will then cover the readr and data.table packages to easily and efficiently import flat file data. After that, you will learn how to read .xls files in R using readxl and gdata.

In this course, you will learn to read CSV, XLS, and text files in R using tools like readxl and data.table.

Learn to read .xls, .csv, and text files in R using readxl and gdata, before learning how to use readr and data.table packages to import flat file data.

Introduction to Importing Data in R

The ability to produce meaningful and beautiful data visualizations is an essential part of a data scientist skill set. This course, the first R data visualization course in the series, introduces you to the principles of good visualizations and the grammar of graphics plotting concepts implemented in the ggplot2 package. ggplot2 has become the go-to tool for flexible and professional plots in R. We’ll examine the first three essential layers for making a plot: data, aesthetics, and geometries. By the end of the course you will be able to make complex exploratory plots.

Recommended by ggplot2 author Hadley Wickham, this online course teaches you how to create meaningful data visualizations in R with ggplot2 at your own pace

Data Visualization with ggplot2 (Part 1)

It's commonly said that data scientists spend 80% of their time cleaning and manipulating data and only 20% of their time actually analyzing it. For this reason, it is critical to become familiar with the data cleaning process and all of the tools available to you along the way. This course provides a very basic introduction to cleaning data in R using the tidyr, dplyr, and stringr packages. After taking the course you'll be able to go from raw data to awesome insights as quickly and painlessly as possible!

Learn to explore your data so you can properly clean and prepare it for analysis.

DataCamp's course teaches you to clean data in R so you can turn raw data into valuable insights quicker. See why over 800,000 data scientists use DataCamp!
