Data wrangling and visualization with R

This hands-on, participatory workshop is designed for those with basic R programming experience. It focuses on data wrangling and visualization using the tidyverse set of packages.

The curriculum is based on episodes 4 and 6 of the Data Carpentry Data Analysis and Visualization with R lesson.

- Become acquainted with the concept of tidy data.
