R language Roadmap

How to learn R?

R is an open-source programming language that is used as statistical software. It is used for the purpose of data analysis also. It generally comes with a Command-line interface and is available on all types of operating systems.

It’s stable release was in the year 2000 and now is maintained by R development core team.

R programming language has a vast community, gets easily integrated with other languages and is patform independent.

Now, let’s dive deep into the roadmap of R.

Step1:

Begin with its installation on your PC. Learn its basic syntax, data types, variables, and constants.

Step2:

Once you are done with everything mentioned above. Start learning about operators, decision making statements, functions, and loops.

Step3:

Understand the concepts of vectors, strings, lists, arrays, and matrices.

Step4:

Move to some more important topics. Learn about factors, packages, data frames, and data reshaping.

Step5:

We are halfway done with R now. Learn about handling CSV files, Excel files, Binary files, XML files, and JSON files.

Step6:

Understand the concept of web data and databases.

Step7:

Today’s actions are tomorrow’s results. Understand charts and graphs. Learn pie charts, bar charts, line charts, box plots, histograms, and scatterplots.

Step8:

R is a language used for statistics and mathematical operations. Learn about mean, median, & mode, linear regression, multiple regression, logistic regression, poisson regression, normal distribution, and binomial distribution.

Step9:

Understand analysis of covariance, time series analysis, and survival analysis.

Step10:

Learn Nonlinear least square, decision tree, random forest, and chi test square.

Step11:

Yahoo! We just completed our roadmap with R. Keep practising regularly to get a better grasp at it.
