🐤 Session 3 (“Intermediate”)

In this session, we will:

  1. Finish going through the ‘essential data manipulation techniques’ from Session 2, including grouping (group_by) and summarising (summarise) data frames, and using if_else and case_when to recode.

  2. Be introduced to the popular ggplot2 package for plotting and visualisation.

  3. Prepare for Session 4, where we will continue with the plotting practical and mini project.
