Have you always wanted to get into R but never quite found the right time or place to start?

Come join with fellow R-Ladies to learn R in a laid back, hands-on session as we take the first steps into the R language. This 3-hour session is intended for complete beginners or those who would like to refresh some of the basics we cover. No prior programming knowledge is required to attend. If you do have some familiarity with R you might want to attend an advanced R beginner's workshop we plan to have in the future (stay tuned!).

In this session R-Ladies organizers will introduce you to:

• R and it’s graphical interface RStudio
• Basics of coding in R language
• What are functions and packages
• Loading and inspecting a dataset
• Basics of data wrangling with dplyr package
• Basics of data plotting with ggplot2 package

This event is hosted by ECOSCOPE - Ecosystem Services, Commercialization Platforms and Entrepreneurship (http://ecoscope.ubc.ca/)
