About the Course

In this course you will learn how to program in R and how to use R for effective data analysis. You will learn how to install and configure software necessary for a statistical programming environment and describe generic programming language concepts as they are implemented in a high-level statistical language. The course covers practical issues in statistical computing which includes programming in R, reading data into R, accessing R packages, writing R functions, debugging, profiling R code, and organizing and commenting R code. Topics in statistical data analysis will provide working examples....

"R Programming" forces you to dive in deep.

These skills serve as a strong basis for the rest of the data science specialization.

Material is in depth, but presented clearly. Highly recommended!

Excellent course! I already knew a lot about R - but this class helped me solidify what I already knew, taught me lots of new tricks, and now I have a certificate that says I know `something' about R!

challenging course, assignments do not always go hand in hand with what the lessons were about, but I guess that's what google is for.

Comprehensive R Programming introduction. It takes some effort and external research to be able to complete programming assignments.

Excellent course. The exercises and tasks are challenging. I consider it is a course that requires many hours of practice and study.

It was a good course. Explained in a simple way. Although assignment were a bit difficult but overall a good course for beginners.

The weekly exercises/assignments are not supplementary to lectures. Otherwise both, the assignments and lectures are informative.

Basics were taught but I wish it was more advanced to the point that I would feel comfortable doing data analysis in R on my own.

A bit difficult. It would be better if there are a bit more practices between courses and assignments!

Appreciate the professor!

This course was good. however, I found it difficult to complete the assignments as they were not what was taught in the lessons.

Most of the instruction is top notch. But there are a few areas that are skimped on. Perhaps those are taught in other courses?

I think the video is much easier than the quizzes and assignments. There is a big gap between the weekly video and the quizzes.

more detailed examples should be put in videos. Swirl is a good option but learning it first time will make a great difference

The course is great overall, but the assignments are far difficult and hardly relevent to what are taught through the videos.

Need more resources to learn about the projects. The resources are online but extra exercises will help to sharp the skills.

Excellent cours, bien expliqué, avec un petit bémol sur la difficulté des devoirs (où il faut écrire des fonctions) !

Merci !

It's a good introductory course for R programming but it's a bit basic if you already have some experience programming in R

Videos and quizzes are very good. Final assignments for each week are VERY hard and differ a lot from the course material.

Bom curso mas poderia ter alguns vídeos ensinando mais sobre funções e outros parâmetros, pois é bem fraco as vídeo aulas.

Explanation of the course is wonderful but extra practical exercises are needed. SWIRL in not enough from my point of view

Nice introductional course to R! I was only missing some illustrations that would enhance the understanding of the matter.

It is well-organized.

I don't know why but compared with the lectures, I prefer the swirl tool they use in this course...

It gives you the basic idea of R coding. Swirl is very good. Homework 3 is a little bit tricky.

Overall it's a good class.
