With that we start off the workshop with “How to Download R” in the computer as we can also download in our laptops at home as we can review and practice what we have learned in class. Then we started off with the basics of R with all the simple codes needed to know when advancing to more complicated matters in R with all the basics down we started with our first topic “Vectors", where we learned to create vectors and give them values which are now the foundation of R programming, with that we concluded with the first day of R programming workshop.
Session II: Matrix, Dataframe, Importing data sets, Dr. Vennila J and Ms. Keerthi Vijayan
The second session of the workshop had begun with the topic “Matrices”, where we learned to create 2x2,3x3...etc. matrices in R, even though it was confusing at first the teachers present there helped us understand the concept. Then the topic “Formation of Data Set” was taken in which we learned to create a data set in R and it is one of my favorite topics as when we finish writing the code and press enter the satisfaction that comes after when the table is formed is something else. This concluded for the first day of R Programming Workshop. Then at last we had “Importing Data Sets” where we learned to import data sets from excel it sounds easier as it sounded but I had trouble in the importing part but soon I figured it out through our teacher's guidance and that was a relief with that we concluded with the second day of R programming workshop.
Session III: Descriptive statistics and Graphs, Ms. Keerthi Vijayan and Dr. Vinoth B
The third session of the workshop had begun with the topic “Bar Chart" where we learned to create a bar chart in R it was a nut to crack but it's when I remembered an important thing from first day is that R is variable sensitive when the given variable is not the same as the variable you have named then it won't process it, using that knowledge I learned this topic. After 2 attempts I was able to create the bar graph. Then we moved on to the topic “Pie Chart” where we learned to create a pie chart in R, I was able to get it in my 3rd try but the exciting thing I got to know last minute was that you apply any color you wanted, with that we concluded the third day of R programming workshop.
Session IV: Scatter Plot, Correlation and Regression, Ms. Liji Geroge and Dr. Vennila J The fourth session of the workshop had begun with the topic
“Multiple Line Chart” where we learned to plot multiple line chart in R, it was one of the hardest topics in R and still troubles me a bit but all the concepts are all understood. Then we moved on to” Scatter Plot” where we learned to plot a scatter diagram in R, Correlation and regression analysis with that we concluded the fourth day of R programming workshop.
