TOP REVIEWS FROM INTRODUCTION TO R PROGRAMMING FOR DATA SCIENCE
It is a very good course, for everybody that wants to start in R I recombend to this course.
Excellent introductory course with very useful hands-on lab sessions.
It was really fast paced . The video content was understandable and nice but more practice oriented interface along with the video lectures would do the task much better.
Very good materials, clear and precise. Very useful for anyone with a knowledge of another programming language and very easy to understand for begineers. Highly recommended.
