R Programming - R Language for Absolute Beginners (Udemy.com)

I found this course was really well organised. The practical exercises were great to test and check your learning. As a beginner R programming student, this course was a great starting point to learn the basics and build a starting foundation for further training using R. I feel that I will need to go back and review again from Section 14 to really understand the coding strategies to assess real-world datasets. Thanks Ivo for all your hard work building this course and teaching it in a fun and informative way! I hope to continue one day with the Data Science Course.

I recently completed this R programming course, and I must say it was exactly what I was looking for as a beginner. The course is well-structured and easy to follow, making it a great starting point for anyone new to R. What I appreciated the most were the coding exercises, which helped me gain hands-on experience and build confidence in using the language. The section based on the Walmart dataset was particularly valuable, as it provided a real-world perspective on how R is used in practice. As a suggestion for improvement, I would love to see even more coding exercises and one or two additional real-life dataset-based sections similar to the Walmart project, as they significantly enhance practical learning. Overall, this is an excellent course for beginners, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone starting their journey with R.

I am someone who comes from a very heavy SQL background. I always like to learn new things when it comes to data analysis or data engineering. Your course was very easy to follow along and the content was easy to understand. R can be challenging but that is a part of the learning experience! Will most likely take your Python course soon

Who knew indexing would be so important? Ivo does a great job of explaining the underlying fundamentals of how the R program organizes and handles data. While I am still incredibly slow, I feel more confident in my ability to load, visualize, and interpret data in R. This got me to the level of descriptive statistics, I am hoping next to get into linear regressions and other forms of analysis.

El curso es muy bueno, es un buen curso para iniciarse en el mundo de R, los ejercicios suelen ser fáciles en su gran mayoría, hay algunos que si son difíciles que requieres ver la solución. En lo personal recomendaría el curso a alguien que no tiene nociones de R o de programación, el único problema es el Audio del instructor en los videos pero se soluciona colocandote audifonos o viendo el video con subtitulos.

The course material was easy to understand and follow, even as a rather hands-off person (I prefer to make notes than follow step-by-step with RStudio, half the time I don't even have RStudio open). Some lectures seem a bit repetitive but it helps to refresh my memory so I am fine with them. I don't know how much of this can be used in handling real datasets, or applicable at work since I haven't tried yet, but it is a good start to learning more advanced content. I personally am keen on getting more familiar with ggplot2 - after finishing this course I still feel like I'd plot faster using Excel, but with the right training and practice R offers way more in terms of flexibility and customisation.

I really enyjoyed these lectures, Ivo is an excellent tutor. The lectures are concise and beginner friendly. I started with no prior experience in R or anything related to data science and I feel more confident to dive deeper into data analytics after completing this course. And Ivo always answers to questions in detail and within a short period of time. Would recommend to anyone starting R. :)

It was an excellent course for complete novice R programmers such as me. I recommend Ivo as a teacher; his lessons are easy to follow and well-articulated. I wish the course went a bit deeper into functions and statistics; however, overall, it was worthwhile.

Most of this course is really well thought out and put together. My one criticism comes in the Functions section. The examples provided in the lectures are good for beginners, and reasonably well explained. But when it comes to the coding exercises, the tasks are much more advanced and pretty unrealistic for someone who is learning functions for the first time . It would have been much better if the teacher had provided a wider range of function exercises so people learning can slowly ramp up, rather than being given very few exercises (3) that are a lot more technical than anything we saw in the lectures.

Learning language can be very interesting or boring depending upon how you understand the concept. if concepts left unclear then one cannot play around with it. In this course, Instructor took care of everything. he maintained the flow so neatly that every concept is falling in place one by one. Course is well alligned. Coding exercise, examples, theories; all are well structured. He explains the concepts veryclearly plus he maintained a certain pace so that everyone who wants to learn R, understands it at the same time he is explaning. Playing around with data and R is now filled with fun and its becoming very very interesting.
