Intro to Statistics using R Part 2
July 29, 2016 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm
FreeCome to the Greenwich Library for the second session of a two-part Intro to Statistics series using R – the free, open-source statistical computing language that is the industry standard software of data science. R’s functionality overlaps with Microsoft Excel but offers more flexibility and works better with large data sets. These skills may be particularly useful for middle and high school science research students who need to analyze datasets for their projects. In this second session, patrons will review topics from the first session and learn how to conduct linear regressions, perform basic statistical tests, download third-party libraries, and search for help through R’s documentation and StackOverflow. This series will be taught by Luke Hellum, a rising sophomore at Yale College planning to major in Applied Mathematics or Statistics.
