Welcome to the R based coding modules for FISH 470 Lab! Here you can find various learning modules designed to help you enhance your skills in data analysis and visualization using R and the tidyverse. Each module includes background information, step-by-step instructions, and practical exercises to reinforce your learning. When first learning to code, repitition and replication are key! I challenge you to work through the modules by physically typing out the commands rather than copy-paste. This will help you become more familiar with the syntax and structure of R programming. Don’t hesitate to experiment with the code and use the help function ?function_name frequently.

I encourage you to print out these cheat sheets and keep them handy as you work through the modules:

Happy coding!
