R is a widely used statistical programming language that’s beloved by people in academia and the tech industry. But that makes it sound more intimidating than it actually is. R is a great first language for anyone interested in answering questions with data analysis, data visualization, and data science.
If interested in learning the basics and an introduction to the R language, we'd recommend the Learn R course. To view all of the courses and Paths that teach R and learn more about the language, please see the R course catalog.
