Mini Course: R Package Development 2 of 3
R Package Development aims to provide you with the basic tools and knowledge to write your own high-quality R packages.
In this course, we aim to show you how to develop your own R packages. By doing so, you can take your R programming skills to the next level, becoming not just a user, but also a developer.
▼Target audience This course is suitable for people who:
Have some previous exposure to R (like Skill Pill: R ) Want to become active contributors to the R community through package development or Want to learn some advanced features of RScientific Computing on AWS 3 of 4
Amazon Web Service ( AWS ) is a very powerful cloud computing platform powering not only Amazon, but also many other web services across the globe. Scientists are now embracing the massive computing capacity of AWS to perform innovative scientific computing.
▼Target audience
The course requires basic knowledge of Python programming language. In addition, basic understanding of Linux command line is desired to run the hands-on tutorials.
