Abstract

R and Python are widely regarded as two of the easiest and most popular programming languages to learn. This course provides a solid understanding of R and Python’s fundamental concepts and constructs, making it an ideal choice for beginners. It serves as a foundation for tackling diverse problems, such as data analysis and software development. With a focus on data science applications, the course covers topics like data importation, storage, manipulation, and essential analysis tools. This course will specifically focus on syntactic and data acquisition, as well as the presentation of analysis results. It is designed for students with limited programming experience, acting as a stepping stone to more specialized areas of Python, including machine learning, statistical data processing, and data visualization.
