There may also be times when Amarel must be unavailable due to externally-scheduled data center facilities, power, or telecommunications maintenance. When this happens, we will do our best to avoid adding to a month’s downtime with our … Read More

R Data Wrangling with dplyr, tidyr, readr, and more

Some of the tidyverse's most powerful features are its abilities to import, filter, and otherwise manipulate data. This session reviews major packages within the tidyverse that relate to the essential data handling steps required before (and during) data analysis. Supplemental materials are available.

R for reproducible scientific documents: knitr, rmarkdown, and beyond

The RStudio environment enables the easy creation of documents in various formats (HTML, DOC, PDF) using Rmarkdown, while knitr allows the incorporation of executable R code to produce the tables and figures in those documents. This session introduces these concepts and other packages and practices supporting reproducibility with the R environment. Supplemental materials are available.

Data Publication 2 (publishing to data repositories and creating R packages)

This workshop first reviews repositories for data publication such as Dataverse, ICPSR, OSF, Zenodo, and more. Then we turn to a detailed discussion of building R packages. R Packages are an excellent way to distribute collections of data and code. Following on the release of the 2nd edition of Hadley Wickham's R Packages book, this … Read More
