Details
Statistics and data fuel business with information and insights and programming has made working with these stats easier and more powerful. R is a programming language developed for statistical computing to make data analysis accessible and effective.
In this course we will use the R programming language to:
- Work with probability
- Understand factors in probability
- Calculate combinations and permutations
- Work with continuous variables
- Work with random variables
- Apply central limit theorem
- Apply statistics to real-world scenarios

Schedule Dates and Booking
There are currently no scheduled dates.
Please note that this course needs a minimum of 6 delegates to schedule a course. You can choose to be added to the waiting list by clicking the button below, and we will contact you when we have enough delegates interested. Should we not get enough delegates, we will refund or credit your paid booking.
Should you need this course urgently, the following options are available:
- Pay for 6 delegates (whether you have them or not) and we will schedule the course as soon as possible.
- If you have fewer delegates and cannot pay for 6, we can negotiate a shortened course where some of the time will be spent in blended learning - watching videos and doing tutorials and exercises with some contact time with the trainer. We would want to discuss what your core needs are so that we cover those aspects. You need to have paid for 3 delegates at least.
