, 1. Off we go!
1.1. Credit and license
1.2. Goal and scope
1.3. Format
1.4. Caveats

Not important

2. Getting started with R
2.1. Typing commands

Typing a command: ctrl + enter OR command + enter  R will execute
the command




[1] = answer on the first question


2.1.1. Be very careful to avoid typos

There is no autocorrect in R, so type exactly what you mean


2.1.2. R is (a bit) flexible with spacing

R ignores redundant spacing (exception: do not insert spaces in the middle
of a word)


2.2. Doing simple calculations

Addition is an operation and + is an (arithmetic) operator




5

, 2.2.1. Adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing

Arithmetic operations:

Operation Operator
Addition +
Subtraction -
Multiplication *
Division /
Power ^


2.2.2. Taking powers

Raising x to the nth power: the act on multiplying a number x by itself n
times
o x-squared: x ^ 2 OR x ** 2
o x-cubed: x ^ 3 OR x ** 3


2.2.3. Doing calculations in the right order

Order of operations: brackets – exponents – division & multiplication –
addition - subtraction


2.3. Storing a number as a variable

Variable: label for (a) certain piece(s) of information, for example: ‘sales’
Value, for example: ‘350’
Assignment operator, for example: ‘<-‘ (left form) OR ‘->’ (right form)
OR ‘=’ (left direction)
o Do not insert spaces in the middle of an operator
o R can overwrite new values for a variable


2.4. Doing calculations using variables

R can calculate with variables and overwrite variables:




6

, 2.5. Storing many numbers as a vector

Vector: variable that can store multiple values


2.5.1. Creating a vector

c( ): combine function with a comma-separated list




For example, sales.by.month is a vector of 12 elements


2.5.2. Getting information out of a vector




By using [ ] we get information out of a vector, for example:
sales.by.month [2] gives us information about February but the output is
[1] because that is the first thing we asked

We can use this to create new variables




2.5.3. Altering the elements of a vector

To change the elements of a vector you can assign the whole vector again
with the combine function OR
