Excellent course! I already knew a lot about R - but this class helped me solidify what I already knew, taught me lots of new tricks, and now I have a certificate that says I know `something' about R!

Very challenging, but good course. I've been programming in R for over a year, but there were still some things for me to pick up in this class. Assignments were a challenge, but satisfying to tackle.

The instruction for the GITHUB is very unclear. I was confused with the 40 digit hash number so it would be great if you can revise that exercise.

This is an excellent course, however, you need to dedicate at least 3 hour a day to complete it in one week if you have experience in programming.

Good course for intermediate coders who are learning a new coding language. This course might be a little bit more difficult for beginner coders.

A great way to get into the vast ecosystem that is R! I learned a lot, but most importantly I learned enough to know how much I don't yet know.
