Now that you've loaded and shaped your data, you can begin analyzing it in earnest. In this lesson, you'll use R to apply various techniques—both statistical and otherwise—that will reveal useful insights about your data.

Data analysis is not just about looking at raw numbers or text. Transforming your data into graphs and plots can greatly enhance your ability to interpret the data, as well as present that data to an audience. In this lesson, you'll use R to analyze your data from a visual perspective in order to reveal insights that raw numbers alone may not provide.

In many data science projects, the ultimate goal is to create a model of the data. The model can be used to estimate some aspect of the data and the larger domain that the data is about. It can even be used to make predictions from the data, which is particularly attractive to businesses. In this lesson you'll get a crash course on modeling data, as well as how to implement those concepts in R.

You'll wrap things up and then validate what you've learned in this course by taking an assessment.
