Description

This course introduces a powerful set of data science tools known as the Tidyverse. The Tidyverse has revolutionized the way in which data scientists do almost every aspect of their job. We will cover the simple idea of "tidy data" and how this idea serves to organize data for analysis and modeling. We will also cover how non-tidy can be transformed to tidy data, the data science project life cycle, and the ecosystem of Tidyverse R packages that can be used to execute a data science project.

Knowledge

  • D​istinguish between tidy and non-tidy data
  • Describe how non-tidy data can be transformed into tidy data
  • D​escribe the Tidyverse ecosystem of packages
