"The course was really good, the resources provided to help after the course are excellent. I was a bit overwhelmed at the beginning trying to learn a new language, but I was put at ease and we went through the content at a pace that I could understand." - R Basics Brisbane 

"Great structure, material and manual. I have completed programming courses before but this one just made more sense! Looking forward to the Intermediate course." - R Beginner Sydney

What is R?

R is an open-source and free programming language that was developed for statistical analysis and the production of high-quality graphics. It has long been popular with statisticians and academics who make up part of the large active user community behind R. This community has contributed over 15,000 packages that extend the base functionality of R, making it easy to implement a vast range of techniques for data manipulation, analysis and visualisation.  

Is R compatible with Microsoft?

Microsoft has recognized the power of R and offers not only their own enhanced distribution of R - Microsoft R Open - but the ability to use R within Microsoft products and services such as Power BI, SQL Server / SQL Server Machine Learning Services and Visual Studio. Microsoft has also developed several packages for R, including the Microsoft Machine Learning Package. Our R training in Melbourne will help you go further in R.
