Yes, some, but hard to suggest commercial companies or universities and certain courses, because it depends on so many facts: - the languages you understand - the European regions that are fine for you to travel to - the level and kind of R stuff you expect in the course (basics, applications in a certain field, or just programming) - your a priori knowledge about statistics Best wishes, Uwe Ligges Happy Year Thank you, Xavier [[alternative HTML version deleted]] __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
Re: [R] I need course in R
R is not as daunting as it first seems and you might get by without having to get formal training. Speaking as someone who taught themselves to use R for statistics, graphics and data manipulation, I found that the Introduction to R book (the small yellow one) and the numerous pdfs available online are fantastic and walk you through the very basics (the one by Emanuel Paradis is excellent). So, as long as you can read and understand English there are alot of free resources out there (maybe there are some of these already translated to other languages, I dont know). It is a steep learning curve, but once you get to grips with the basics, I've found that I can find out everything else I need to know by searching these archives... Hope this helps, Simon Pickett. - Original Message - From: Uwe Ligges lig...@statistik.tu-dortmund.de To: xavier ordoñez rlistxa...@gmail.com Cc: R help r-h...@stat.math.ethz.ch Sent: Friday, December 19, 2008 10:24 AM Subject: Re: [R] I need course in R xavier ordoñez wrote: I am interested to take a course in R.

You can also try the R for SAS and SPSS users at http://rforsasandspssusers.com/ in case you are an existing user of analytics software...its quite user friendly.
