(eCornell) Data Cleaning With the Tidyverse
About This Course
In this course, you will delve into the world of data cleaning by presenting and manipulating your data with the Tidyverse in R. You will organize data by selecting only the variables you're interested in, creating new groups of data, and summarizing data in a way that makes sense for the questions you're trying to ask. You will also create high-quality plots to quickly summarize complex data. You will become familiar with the concept of tidy data and organize data sets in a way that allows for the most efficient analysis. Finally, you will work with data types of more complexity so that you can answer increasingly difficult questions as you take your new skills into your workplace. You will practice all these skills by working with four real-world, complex data sets. This course involves many hands-on coding exercises that will help you take your programming skills to the next level. The course is provided by eCornell in partnership with Genashtim
