Introduction to R: Dealing With Dates

Описание: Date and datetime data is often loaded into R as strings by default, but to work with dates effectively they need to be converted to date formats that allow for exaction of useful information like the day of the week. In this lesson we cover the basics of working with dates in R.

This is lesson 16 of a 30-part introduction to the R programming language for data analysis and predictive modeling. Link to the code notebook below:

This guide does not assume any prior exposure to R, programming or data science. It is intended for beginners with an interest in data science and those who might know other programming languages and would like to learn R.

I will create the videos for this guide such that you should be able to learn a lot just watching on YouTube, but to get the most out of the guide, it is recommended that you create a Kaggle account so that you can fork and edit each lesson so that you can follow along and run code yourself.
