Learning R: Iterating Over Data

Join us on an exciting journey into the world of data with our introductory workshops! Tailored for newcomers with little to no experience in R or other scripted tools, we offer a low-barrier entry to unleash your computer’s potential for data mastery, moving beyond Excel or SPSS. Join us and discover the power of data in a user-friendly, script-driven environment!

This session will revisit the vector underpinnings of R, introduce the apply() family of functions for iterating, or looping, over objects, and introduce for loops for those instances when no pre-existing solution exists.

By the end of this session, participants will be able to efficiently apply looped constructs to their data, using pre-existing tools in R, and be familiar with the basics of constructing for loops to handle repeated tasks.
