Recordings of these sessions can be viewed via links provided in the Analytical Platform and related tools training section on R training. If you have any access problems please contact [email protected].If you work through the material by yourself please leave feedback about the material here.

Please contact Aidan Mews if you have any questions.

Set up instructions

• Ensure you have access to the Analytical Platform.
• Ensure you have linked RStudio and GitHub with an SSH key.
• Clone this repo as an RStudio project.
• Run renv::restore() to install the required R packages.

For presenters

• index.Rmd is the markdown for the presentation slides (knitted to index.html).
• The Github.io page with the presentation should deploy after each PR to the master branch.
• If changes are made to the slides please recreate the R_code_participant.R file by running the code in render_r_code_from_source.R.
• Solutions to the exercises are found in the solutions.Rmd file (knitted to solutions.html). The HTML solutions are not automatically deployed so to use them you will either need to open them in R studio or download them from GitHub and view them in a browser.
