Jupyter Notebooks with R & Git

Vicky Steeves

December 2018

Welcome!

Today we are going to learn the basics of literate programming using Jupyter Notebooks, a popular tool in data science, with the R kernel, so we can run R code in our notebooks. We’ll then take a look at how we use Git and GitHub to keep track of all the versions of our work, collaborate with others, and be open!

If you weren’t able to install the R kernel for jupyter notebooks locally, you can use my NYU JupyterHub instance: https://rdm.apps.brc.stern.nyu.edu. Just login with your netID and password.
