This is a repository designed for free-form, hour-long R practice tasks. Each session provides you with a dataset, and a task to complete with that data.
There are a few steps to getting started with this repository, and it should take around 5 minutes to be ready to use.
-
Clone the repository into Cloud R; you can use either SSH or HTTPS authentication to do this. If you're not familiar with cloning from Github, check out the CRAN Shorts videos on how to do this here
-
Load up a basic set of libraries you'll need for the day with:
renv::restore()
Press Y and enter when prompted, and allow renv to install the packages. When it's done, restart R with CTRL + SHIFT + F10
If you need any other libraries for the analysis you have planned, you can install them as normal.
- You're set up and ready to go!
There are resources you can make use of if you're stuck on something!
And there will always be experts on hand to help you out, so don't be afraid to ask!
If you're stuck or want to be inspired, please check out the example_answers folder inside each session folder. These contain scripts produced in live Learn R By Doing sessions, so you can see how other people approached the problem!
