Overview: As part of the data science life cycle series, this workshop will introduce you to R functions that help you to clean and manipulate your data sets. This so-called data wrangling often is the crucial step to prepare your data for your analyses. We will use tidyverse packages in this workshop.
At the end of this workshop, you will be able to:
· import data sets using the readr package;
· apply the most common dplyr and tidyr functions for data wrangling;
· understand the principles of piping;
Prerequisites:
· Introductory knowledge of R, e.g. from our Introduction to programming with R workshop, or from McGill's R summer camp.
· Install R and RStudio on your computer. You can find installation instructions here. Please contact us (cdsi.science [at] mcgill.ca) if you are having trouble with installation.
