Introductory Workshop 📚

Pre-DataFest Workshop 2024

R for Data Science (r4ds) workshop!

There will also be a free pre-DataFest one-day workshop to get you DataFest ready!

This workshop is structured to teach you how to do data science with R: You’ll learn how to get your data into R, get it into the most useful structure, transform it and visualise.

We will also give you a quick introduction to Quato. Quarto provides a unified authoring framework for data science, combining your code, its results, and your prose. Quarto documents are fully reproducible and support dozens of output formats, like PDFs, Word files, presentations, and more.
