R / git / GitHub

This meetup will feature a few 5-minute presentations followed by a hands on R / git / GitHub workshop.

If you're interested in giving a 5-minute presentation featuring your work in R (ideally related to the workshop topic, but we're flexible), please email mine@rladies.org and/or elaine@rladies.org with your brief pitch.

Agenda:

• 6:30pm - 6:45pm - Networking and setup

• 6:45pm - 7:00pm - Presentations

• 7:00pm - 7:45pm - Workshop

• 7:45pm - 8:00pm - Wrap up

Dinner will be provided by RStudio and space by Duke Libraries.

All events are intended for women as leaders, mentors, members, and attendees. We are emphatically queer and trans friendly. Men are welcomed to attend as guests.

Prior to the meetup:

Before the workshop please install the latest versions of R and RStudio as well as Git. You can follow the "Installation" and "Connect Git, GitHub, RStudio" sections (Sections 1 and 2) at Happy Git with R by Jenny Bryan (http://happygitwithr.com). The workshop will go a lot smoother if you have completed the setup, so please attempt it beforehand. However if you have any difficulty with it, don't worry, we will have some time to work on the setup at the meetup as well.
