<h1 class="title">Programming with R</h1>
<p>The best way to learn how to program is to do something useful, so this introduction to R is built around a common scientific task: data analysis.</p>
<p>Our real goal isn’t to teach you R, but to teach you the basic concepts that all programming depends on. We use R in our lessons because:</p>
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li>we have to use <em>something</em> for examples;</li>
<li>it’s free, well-documented, and runs almost everywhere;</li>
<li>it has a large (and growing) user base among scientists; and</li>
<li>it has a large library of external packages available for performing diverse tasks.</li>
</ol>
<p>But the two most important things are to use whatever language your colleagues are using, so you can share your work with them easily, and to use that language <em>well</em>.</p>

</div>
<div class="panel-body">
<p>An understanding of the concepts of files and directories (including working directory) is required.</p>
<p>Though not required, we often use RStudio when teaching this lesson. You can find our introduction to RStudio <a href="01-supp-intro-rstudio.html">here</a>.</p>
