SUMMARY:[ONLINE] Introduction to R syntax: part 1: operators\, expressions\, variables\, built-in functions\, arguments\, data types\, vectors
DESCRIPTION:Learn to read and write R scripts for computations\, data 
 manipulation\, and simple analysis. You will get hands-on coding experience 
 via a web application\, no software installation is required to attend. The 
 goal is to explain the rules of the R syntax in general terms so you can 
 make more sense of an introductory book or the recipes you will find when 
 searching for solutions online. This tutorial is full of short exercises 
 and code examples. It is directed to undergraduate or graduate students 
 interested in learning R to apply it in assignments\, projects\, or theses 
 but with no programming experience.\n\nPart 1 (Jan 6 @ 4) covers using 
 operators\, expressions\, variables\, and built-in functions in R. 
 Understanding assignment and how arguments work when calling functions. The 
 data types and structures R offers to model data. Introduction to vectors. 
 Part 2 (Jan 7 @ 4) covers the remaining data structures to model and 
 manipulate data: factors\, matrices\, arrays\, lists\, and finally\, the 
 workhorse of data analysis\, the data frame. We will study the basics of 
 subsetting and ordering for data structures. Finally\, we will have a look 
 at user functions and basic control flow.
