TOP REVIEWS FROM DATA ANALYSIS WITH R PROGRAMMING
It was a new experince and a new feild for me, all the instructors or facilitators were amazing, encouraging me with their persona;l experance. the fact that it is self paced made it better
Initially I was not so interested in this part of the specialisation but everything has changed after this course. The course instructor explained all the concepts nicely. Now I love programming
I helped me to understand R language within a few months. The content was well organized to follow up and practice quiz and the final challenges were very good questions. Thanks for the contents.
The course guided the concepts of R in a smooth manner teaching from basics to higher-level code. I really enjoyed each step and the project practices at each step helped strengthen the concepts.
