Statistical Analysis with R

February 16, 2017 @ 8:30 am - 3:30 pm

Modern Languages Building (MLB), Room 2001B

This is a two day workshop in R which  is a free and open source environment for data analysis and statistical computing.  While R contains many built-in statistical procedures, a powerful feature of R is the facility for users to extend these procedures to suit their own needs.  Excellent graphing capability is another reason R is gaining wide popularity.
