PLEASE NOTE: In order to be admitted to any teaching activities, including those of your choice, you must be enrolled in the academic year in which the activities in question are offered. Students who are about to graduate in the December and April sessions are therefore advised NOT to undertake extracurricular activities in the new academic year in which they are not enrolled, as these graduation sessions are valid for students enrolled in the previous academic year. Therefore, students who undertake an activity in an academic year in which they are not enrolled will not be granted CFU credits.

Learning objectives
The course aims to provide the basics of the programming and operating philosophy of the R software, introducing the participants to some of the most recent innovations.
Program
R is an open-source software for statistical computing. Created at the end of the 1990s from the S software, R is a multi-paradigm language that over the course of two decades has acquired a central role among statistical software, thanks also to the development of more than 19000 packages implementing techniques and methods coming from the most diverse fields of methodological and applied statistics. In recent years, thanks to the development of an entire family of packages aimed at simplifying and organizing on a new basis the programming methods and the interaction with R, the software has found new opportunities to express its potential to the fullest. The R language, together with Python, is now considered the reference language in modern data science and, in particular, for machine learning. It easily interfaces with many other software such as Excel, Tableau, Microsoft Power BI etc.
After the introduction of the R language and of R Studio (the most used IDE for R), the course will focus on the following topics: data processing and manipulation techniques, advanced graphical tools for statistical analysis, graphic representation of geo-referenced information, regression analysis, Monte Carlo simulations, automatic reporting and production of interactive documents.

Didactic methods
The course "Data Analysis Laboratory with R" is an optional "type f" activity, which allows to students to obtain 3 CFU, once a final examination is passed. In particular:
- The course is available only to students that are regularly enrolled to the academic year 2022/2023.
- All CdL and CdLM students, of the Verona campus, of the School of Economics and Management can register. In case of limitations to the total number of places available, requests for participation will be considered following the registration order, considering that priority will be given to CdLM students, in particular to students of the Master’s degree in Economics and Data Analysis, and of the Master’s degree in Banking and Finance.
- Participation to the course does not require any particular background knowledge of the software R.
- The lessons will be delivered online through Zoom meetings. All the lessons will be registered for later viewing.
- There will be two courses, one in the first semester and another one in the second semester.
- The course consists of 18 hours of exercise lessons and tutorial activity (plus 2 hours of final examination).
