fasteR VS swirl

On the other hand, there is also a more traditional universe outside of the of the newer tidyverse approach. See the criticism of the tidyverse ecosystem by Prof Norm Matloff (of UC Davis). He provides a freely available introductory course in base R.

Start with fasteR, then move to Hands on Programming with R and R for Data Science. There is considerable overlap in the early chapters so don’t be afraid to skip parts. If you want to know more about the nuts and bolts of R then try Advanced R.

This tutorial is very good for starters. As is this book.

Check out his free course on GitHub where you'll see he walks you through getting right into learning R, keeping things simple by using the R Gui command line: https://github.com/matloff/fasteR

I recently saw someone offer this link and I think it’s a good start.

R, the language you mean? I really like swirl, and my students do to.

Note, the R website has lots of manuals/introduction documentation and there’s also the swirl package to supplement / replace some of the options above.

Swirl is free and a good place to start.

Hey, have you tried swirl? It's an interactive learning experience at a variety of difficulty levels.

By far the best way to learn R is by writing R. A good way to do it is through Swirl, which runs inside RStudio, gets you to write code to solve problems, and then evaluates whether you got it right or not: https://swirlstats.com/

My colleagues recommend installing a package called "swirl" and working through their tutorials. https://swirlstats.com/ I don't personally know a whole lot about it, but I have heard good things.

There’s also Swirl that teaches you R in R. https://swirlstats.com/

swirl - I focused on data initially, and this interactive prompt-based course was an unbelievably good intro to R, a programming language popular with data scientists and statisticians. I shout it out whenever I can. CodeAcademy is a great website which uses this same kind of structure. Their R course was initially just swirl placed into a web app.
