Programming in R Advanced Programming

The student will acquire the following knowledge: - Knowledge of techniques for automatic presentation of results in reports. - Ability to develop Shiny applications. - Knowledge of the tidyverse environment. - Knowledge of the tidymodels environment.

This course covers several tools for streamlining the consulting pipeline in R: from data wrangling to presentation of results, passing through a fast statistical modeling. The focus is placed on seeing the main features of many different packages and solutions. 1. Advanced R Markdown for reporting   1.1. Advanced topics on R Markdown   1.2. Writing good reports   1.3.

The classes consist of a mixture of lectures on the software and its practical use. The statistical language R is used. Students are expected to bring their own laptops to experiment with the code during the lectures. * Training activities   - AF1: Theoretical lesson.   - AF2: Practical lesson.   - AF5: Tutorials.   - AF6: Group work.   - AF7: Individual work.   - AF8: On-site evaluation tests. * Teaching methodologies   - MD1: Class lectures by the professor with the support of computer and audiovisual media, in which the main concepts of the subject are developed and the bibliography is provided to complement the students' learning.   - MD2: Critical reading of texts recommended by the professor of the subject: press articles, reports, manuals and/or academic articles, either for later discussion in class, or to expand and consolidate the knowledge of the subject.   - MD3: Resolution of practical cases, problems, etc. posed by the teacher individually or in groups.   - MD4: Presentation and discussion in class, under the moderation of the professor of topics related to the content of the subject, as well as case studies.   - MD5: Preparation of papers and reports individually or in groups.
