Getting started with Python and R for Data Science

Agenda

We will take you through some common Python and R packages used for machine learning and data analysis, and go through a simple linear regression model. Also, we will help you set up Python and R on your Windows/Mac/Linux machine, run your code locally, and push your code to a GitHub repository.

What you’ll learn

  • Set up Python and R in your machine
  • Do basic scripting for reading and visualizing data
  • How to apply a model and assess
  • How to share your hacks and projects on GitHub
