In research, a significant amount of effort is spent cleaning data to get it ready for visualisation and analysis. This course will teach you how to convert your messy dataset into tidy data using R for easy data visual exploration and analysis.
For this, you will be introduced to the concept of tidy data, and guided through the programmatic steps in R required to structure datasets according to its principles. Additionally, we will show how tidy data works well together with graphical functions of the R package ggplot2 thus facilitating initial exploration and analysis of the data. Finally, a “bring-your-own-data day” (optional day 3) will allow a restricted group of participants to obtain individual feedback and consulting on how to tidy up and visually inspect their own research datasets.
