I literally never comment on videos but this is the ONLY resource that actually helped me understand R without assuming I already understand programming languages!!!!!

Greg you have made R really very simple, I don't know why was I afraid of it. Thank you so much for being here and helping people learn this great piece of programming in the simplest and easiest to practice ways.

This has to be one of the best explanations of a programming language I have ever seen. Thank you!

Great content, thank you so much for this! Hoping you'll make one for microbiome analyses

I came here looking to at least see what R looked like because I'm getting ready to start a course in data analytics and this was listed. I hadn't a clue what R was nor what it looked like. Lol but I'm so glad i came across your video, because i enjoyed it very much and now feel im comfortable in taking the R programming part of the course, thank you so much!

Thank you so much, my first time to learn R, the video is very helpful for me as I am trying to switch from Stata to R. In 13 minutes you covered lots of things. Thanks again

Wow! Thank you! So nicely shown. I am very relieved to see many similarities to python and don't have to start from zero. Now i am not worried about my university course anymore!

Thank you so much! you just made R look very simple and easy to learn!

So clear & concise. You're wonderful. Thank you for your help!

Amazing! Thank you so much for such a great video! Cheers!

Thank you!

So there is the tidyverse. Do they have a tidybowl? Lol! Got to throw some potty humor in the mix.

thank you a billion!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is R based on Python? Syntax looks identical. Just few things changed.

Brown Brian Johnson Carol Moore Linda

So it's just a calculator on steriods?

Wow, thank you for teaching this to all of us! You are probably saving soo many students from failing universities cause their teachers don’t teach this properly! On that note, thank you man! Your a life saver

As a long time coder who has heard a lot of buzz about R but never looked into it before, I think the best compliment I can pay you is that in 14 minutes I went from "what is R?" to "I get why people love R"

My niece is learning to use this for one of her courses in college, so I used this video to help me understand how to help her with her studies. I'm used to C# and Java and languages like that, so the syntax was a little weird for me, but I get it now thanks to your explanation. Very well done!

as someone who's trying to learn to program with no knowledge of programing I really didn't understand this at all

the most disgusting thing I've done in my 6+ years of computer science( studies + work )

it gives me a lot of axniety when u zoom in on the code especially for long periods of time because i cant remind myself how its fitting in to the bigger picture. either way, thank you for saving me from 3 hour long lectures, fucking essays of teacher written notes, powerpoints up the wazoo, and 2-3 books dragging out the content in this video, that are imaginably there just to make my professor feel more secure about his job

A better way to teach is to start by defining terms. For instance, you didn't explain how different characters are translated into R.

This is the first thing I'm watching trying to re-learn R after a course I did last year. Already this is so much easier to understand and you make it so much more approachable and entertaining than my lecturers last year. Thank you!

Hi Greg, I am new to R and the whole world of programming. I found your first video very educative, but where do I go from here? I thought you had a numbered series of videos that would teach how me the complete language. I visited your page, and there are so many videos, I literally don't know which one to use. it is possible to do a series of videos from beginner to advanced use of R. thank you.

Thank you for not omitting these basic but ESSENTIAL details!

I am doing my masterthesis and I was so scared when I heard I need to learn how to use R, because I am absolutely not an IT person and have no clue about coding. I searched here on youtueb for some tutorial videos and I am so glad I found yours, because it is easy to follow. I need this to learn step by step and by the end of this video I kind of enjoyed doing it! Definitely going to watch the others too!

I am taking the Coursera Google Data Analytics course and have never programmed before. Seeing a couple of the videos in the course, I was hesitant about learning R. I am SO GLAD I found your video! The way you explain and your positive outlook gives me confidence that I can do this! I'll be watching your videos along with my course- thank you!

14:00 "Dont do drugs" thanks for the reminder

I don't have the R studio environment. Did I not download the right one? I have the console and the programming editor. I use free version any help? I love this! The Finance world is adopting more tech driven and this will pass on soon edit: Nevermind my pal texted I got the wrong link lol. Still best video for us beginners!

problems and than volu automate the boi cuz I didn’t know how to sidechain. My one buddy produces riddim and he legit saw my daw

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I am not great with computers/ coding and was very nervous/ skeptical of my abilities to learn this program. After watching this video, I am very hopeful for my future with Using R. You are very encouraging and explain everything in very simple turns. Thank you again!

About 10+ years ago, I was using R extensively. Mostly version 2, and a bit of version 3. I want to get back into it, but I don’t know how much the language and landscape has evolved since then. Is R version 4 different in important ways? Is there like a bridging course to get me from R 3 to R 4? In the vid you demonstrated the library “tidyverse”. I take it the library is commonly used these days? Are there other important libraries that have emerged in the past 10 years that I need to learn in order to understand R as it’s used today? Thanks for the into vid! I’m glad I found your channel!

Thank you so much. Short and straightforward video. Could you pls make a video on pie chart 🙏? Thanks

sir I got the feeling we'll be best friends for this semester (I actually like statistics and really want to understand it and not just pass the exam)

Hello sir, I want to thank you for the lesson. Can I ask you what program you use for marking and deawing these rectangular in your video? Thank you in advance.

literally have to learn R for a research project I'm going to work on. SO glad i found this channel. Could you do a video on species discovery curves/ accumulation curves?

I was with you until you called quotation marks “inverted commas” Had to look it up 🙃

Great introduction to R Greg, thanks for that. Quick question though. After selecting the columns, so name and age in the video? How can I filter on an exact match that is text not numerical?

I've just recently installed R and R Studio. I am an absolute beginner. Do you have any exercises that I can do to increase my knowledge?

died @ dont do drugs at the end LMAOOOO

Thank you very much for nice explanation and your lecture, Is there any online and complete course?

This is one of the best quick introduction tutorials I've ever seen. What a positive experience! Thank you for the video!

Hi Greg, great videos. I’m interested in public health and data analysis but where can you find jobs for this type of work outside of academia?

Smith Ruth Davis Nancy Taylor Brenda

ok i liked and subscribed ur channel but i dont understand why we need R for machine learning programing?

Great video. I loved when he said "ok now we're cooking with gas". I thought this was a Caribbean expression 😂

Thompson Matthew Lopez Nancy Garcia Sandra

Very useful keep helping us with u r content sir

Wow python makes a lot of sense as far as what symbols are used for what.

love your videos ♡ I tell everyone who is new into R in my company about your tutorials because they are so great to understand!

Harris Jennifer Taylor Anthony Davis Timothy

Robinson Jennifer White Richard Taylor Amy

This is fantastic! So useful for my degree summer prep, thank-you so much for your patience and explaining everything so clearly 🙂

i lavet, great video, keep it up!

When would you use this instead of excel? Large datasets? How is this better than access? Or is it just a different option?

Hi, I was wondering if you teach R in online live lessons? I am a beginner and was wondering if this is something you offer.

Lee Susan Walker Carol Harris Kenneth

Gonzalez Shirley Perez Linda Moore Helen

This is one of the most succinct tutorials I've ever seen. Not just for Rstudio, but for any programming tutorial. Great job.

Lewis Michelle Johnson Jason Young James

I wish you'd be more clear about the distinction between columns vs rows. For example you seem to address them interchangeably like here: friends[friends$age

I like stats and I checked this video only for curiosity. I thing this series will be good, unfortunately I'm really disappointed with the syntax: two chars for assignments (Pascal are you there?) and $ for field access is far away from productivity typing/readability.

Sir, In RStudio, responded ''tidyverse" was built for older versions what can I use instead as an extension? Thank you for the good explanation.

Hernandez Sarah Martin Jennifer Miller Sarah

Why R when there's Matlab and Octave?

Error in get(as.character(FUN), mode = "function", envir = envir) : object '.' of mode 'function' was not found I have got this notification for the last code. Any solution pls

absolute beginners? HaHa -- what is Rstudio? The tooling is the hardest part of programing!! how did you display the environment? What's a data frame?

Moore Mark Walker John Thomas Laura

Show me how to convert minutes into hour and so on please

my error - got it - had only two names. Duh.

Man - this was fantastic!

Im concerned about links being click bait. I really want to learn rather than being bombarded with loads of adverts.
