About the event
This Software Carpentry workshop introduces novice programmers to the R software environment: A powerful, popular and free statistical and graphical programming language. R and its array of third-party packages are commonly used in many scientific disciplines for statistical analysis. The emphasis of this workshop is to give attendees a strong foundation in the fundamentals of R, and to teach best practices for scientific computing: breaking down analyses into modular units, task automation, and encapsulation.
Note that this workshop will focus on teaching the fundamentals of the programming language R, and will not teach statistical analysis.
This workshop will run over four consecutive mornings of Tuesday 28th April - Friday 1st May 2026, from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm AEST each day.
Please only register if you are able to fully commit to attending all four sessions.
