r analytics

The R Analytics training course will provide concepts and practical approach to the statistical package R which is becoming a industry standard for machine learning and data mining. This course lays the foundation to aspiring data scientists. After completion of the class, Participants will be able to apply statistical techniques to the data and derive meaningful information. The techniques learned in R Analytics course will help in Marketing, Insurance and Financial analysis in various IT organizations. R is currently used in Big data environments as well. This course will provide foundation to the advanced data management techniques.

R is a free software programming language and a software environment for statistical computing and graphics. The R language is widely used among statisticians and data miners for developing statistical software and data analysis. The striking difference between R and most other statistical packages is that it is free software and that it is maintained by scientists for scientists.
