It was wonderful journey through out the course. Classes are very much helpful, detailed and concepts are described in an understandable way. Practice exercises provides further clarity of the concepts. It is more of learn by doing course so, I found it very much helpful in the real life. The additional links of the packages and subject matter is provided in each section of the course which helped be to gaze deeper. Absolutely meet my expectation.

I have tried some other R courses on Coursera and other platforms, but this one is amazing. The way the mentor teaches the syllabus, the reading documents, and most importantly, the "hands-on activity" parts are instrumental. As a person who didn't have any background knowledge in coding and data science and just started getting familiar with the basics, I highly recommend the course.

As someone with basically zero programming knowledge, I was worried I would struggle with learning R. However, the instructor, Carrie, was wonderful and explained programming in a manner that I found very easy to follow along. I ended up enjoying learning R and was able to pick it up a lot quicker than I did SQL. This was a great introduction to R and I look forward to learning more.

This was my favorite course in the series. It was detailed enough to understand the basics of R without overwhelming the learner.

Overall a comprehensive course that includes from R scripts to R markdown which is useful. Wish that they have an optional session on R templates which will come in handy for generating similar reports that is used a lot in work.

Not easy for newbies to programming.

I think the course doesn't do justice to R in making it interesting and easy for non-programmers getting into it. Similar to previous course in the certificate, they tend to go over the basics and making you copy and paste too much. So, if you don't go at snail speed, it get frustrating because you keep making very simple mistakes.

I had to constantly rely on external ressources to help me understanding throught the course.

The course's first 2 or 3 modules were alright, from that point onward it's been super generic, super beginner non practical stuff, the google cloud platform forced down the learner's throat instead of having 1 decent site that trains the learner with practical examples.

Although this course claims that no prior programming experience is necessary, one really should have some actual education and experience in programming. Many will find this specific course too difficult to follow without some actual past experience.

none of the code works through coursera for the tests, I had to hunt down the datasets on RStudio to get any of it to work and I had to retake the tests a bunch and just guess on some answers because I couldn't find some of the data through RStudio. IDK if there was an update or not that messed this up but I hope they fix it because it made this course take 3 times longer than it should have. My code worked fine when using RStudio, same exact code through coursersa would show error messages.

Top marks for this course. I found it to be engaging, challenging, and of course very interesting! Salute to all of the instructors for doing an amazing job. If I'm being totally honest, I had my moments of "wondering if I can do this", not to mention the feeling of isolation. I'm just glad that I didn't give up and continue to push forward. I'm not done yet I now going to take on the Capstone Case Study (Course 8) .... Fingers cross pleas :) Keep up the Awesome work you'll are doing at Coursera, and Happy Holidays to you'll and your families. Peace

This course helps me to understand the R programming language. It’s been a year I am planning to learn the R programming language due to no proper content available. Then I saw this on Coursera, which I find very interesting and I completed it in a week.

I had to do a career change from Real Estate Appraiser after 25 years do to a significant decline in buisiness due to inflation and increasing interest rates. I learned a lot and can add this tool to my Resume for lots of different areas.

This was a great course to start with as a beginner. Unfortunately, some of the links to documentation, some of the coding and some functionality with the Posit cloud didn't work. All in all, it was an awesome learning experience.

Loved this course, I know it was the basics for the R programming, but I feel like it covered a lot, the most we could learn in an compact course. Delivered everything needed for the job!

I've taken a few courses that have covered R. This one explained the concepts very well and did not make many assumptions that we would just "pick up" the syntax just through exposure.

Great course and perfect pace for beginning, explain things in a detailed way - if you already have some knowledge about R, the pace of this course might be a bit slow.
