Welcome to the Data Science Specialization using R!

The Beginner’s Guide to the Data Science Specialization using R!

In my first video, I introduced the learners to the Data Science Specialization using R. I have covered topics such as data manipulation, data visualization, statistical inference, and machine learning. I have also talked about the importance of using R in data science and the benefits of the Data Science Specialization. You are now ready to dive deeper into the world of data science with R and learn from my expertise. If you haven't watched my first video please find it below:



Course Dependency Table:

To help my viewers better understand the structure and dependencies of the Data Science Specialization using R, I have provided a course dependency table. This table will show which courses build upon the knowledge learned in previous courses and which courses are prerequisites for others.

For the courses, we consider two forms of dependency:

  • Hard dependency: Students will be required to know material from the prerequisite course. Taking the dependent course simultaneously will be challenging and only possible for highly motivated students willing to work ahead of the course schedule for the prerequisite. Taking hard dependent courses out of order is not possible unless the student already knows the material covered in the prerequisite course.
  • Soft dependency: Knowledge of material from the prerequisite course is recommended and useful. Concurrently taking the prerequisite course and the dependent course is possible. It is not recommended to take them out of order, but would be possible for highly motivated students willing to self-teach components of the prerequisite course as needed.

Mastering Simulation in R Programming: A Beginner to Intermediate Guide

The Beginner’s Guide to Simulation in R: Simulation is the process of generating artificial data based on a set of assumptions or models. R programming provides a variety of functions and packages for simulating different types of data. In this blog post, we will cover the basics of simulation in R programming, including the most commonly used functions, distributions, and simulations using linear models. Functions for Simulation in R R programming provides various functions for simulation, such as: runif() – used to simulate data from a uniform distribution rnorm() – used to simulate data from a normal distribution rexp() – used to simulate data from an exponential distribution rgamma() – used to simulate data from a gamma distribution rpois() – used to simulate data from a Poisson distribution rbeta() – used to simulate data from a beta distribution rbinom() – used to simulate data from a binomial distribution rcauchy() – used to simulate data from a Cauchy distribution Distributio...
