This course will primarily focus on data and the key techniques that are necessary when working programmatically. Data is obtained from a data source; students will learn how to work with the most common data sources and how to load it into R. Once the data is loaded and before it can be analyzed one needs to apply a series of steps known as data munging to get a tidy and workable dataset.
