New R Cheatsheet: Data Science Workflow with R
Teaching R is our mission at Business Science University because R is the most efficient language for exploring data, performing business analysis, and applying data science to business to extract ROI for an organization. R has an amazing ecosystem of tools that seemlessly work together, which has been termed the “tidyverse”. The “tidyverse” ecosystem can take business analysis to a new level. Here’s the key: 99.9% of business analysts don’t know R (and its awesome power). With our learning system, you can learn R quickly, setting yourself on a career tragectory in data science.
