Python and R

Big Data 40 hours

Introduction

This Python and R 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, structures, and object-oriented programming. Then, it delves into R, focusing on data processing and its unique programming features. The final module bridges both languages through a practical case study, highlighting their integration for solving real-world problems. Designed for students, professionals, and researchers, this program provides both theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience, enabling participants to apply programming skills to data-driven projects across various fields, from analytics to machine learning.
