Python and R

Big Data 40 hours

Introduction

This Python and R The course offers comprehensive training in Python and R, two of the most widely used programming languages for data analysis and scientific computing. It begins with an introduction to Python, covering its core syntax, data structures and object-oriented programming. It then moves on to R, focusing on data processing and its unique programming features. The final module brings both languages together through a practical case study, highlighting how they can be integrated to solve real-world problems. Designed for students, professionals and researchers, this programme provides both theoretical knowledge and practical experience, enabling participants to apply their programming skills to data-driven projects across various fields, from analytics to machine learning.
