Why R Training?

It is always recommended that you start learning one language along with learning data science. R is always the best first data science programming language. Firstly, it is widely used and is very popular with over 2 million users worldwide. It is estimated that every year the number of R users grow by over 40 per cent. R is used in many companies that hire data scientists. It is used extensively in tech companies like Facebook and Microsoft. Other companies that use R for data science are Bank of America, Uber, TechCrunch, Ford, etc. R as a programming language is also popular among academicians and scientists.

Learn R programming language possesses significant capabilities in areas such as data visualization, data manipulation and machine learning. R is an easy language to learn. These are reasons enough to learn R programming language.
