Objectifs

 

This is the second part of a course on advanced uses of R. It is dedicated to data visualization using R.

The course takes place on two consecutive days, one day of 5 hours for each part. The first part is on programming in R. Please note that both parts are  face-to-face, not online sessions.

You are invited to follow both parts in a row, but you are also free to cherry pick only one part of this course. Due to the limited number of participants, priority will be given to those registering for both parts.
