Beschreibung	The course offers a deeper insight into the tidyverse, a set of modern, coherent tools to solve most day-to-day data processing, visualisation, and reporting tasks in R. This course extends the Data Processing, Visualisation and Reporting with R course held on November 29-30, 2018 or April 1-2, 2019. Some familiarity with R and the tidyverse is needed to follow the course: participants are encouraged to review chapters 1-13 of "R for data science" by Grolemund and Wickham (https://r4ds.had.co.nz/). Highlights: Iteration: processing multiple files that contain different parts of the same dataset Non-rectangular data: working with raw data from online services (JSON) Functions: structuring the code to avoid too much copy-pasting Tidy evaluation: writing functions that work with datasets of different shape The techniques and tools are illustrated and practiced using simplified but realistic examples. After the course, participants will have hands-on experience in applying these tools. All exercises and materials will be available on a website which will remain available for reference after the course. For all Zurich R Courses, participants should bring their own laptops to the course.
