This training constitutes a friendly introduction to R, a data analysis program that, despite being open access and one of the most widely used, has its main drawback in its use as it is not a user-friendly program nor easy to apply for people not accustomed to data processing.
The course is aimed primarily at people who have difficulties using this type of software, but also at people who have experience with other similar programs and want to get started with R. The training offers a step-by-step guide that goes from installation to becoming competent in data management, creation and modification of variables, and graphical representation of information. With a practical methodology and applied examples, students will acquire the essential knowledge and skills that will allow them to progress autonomously in its use.
