Reproducible Programming in R course

RPiR is a learnr implementation of the Reproducible Programming in R course, developed by the Institute of Biodiversity, Animal Health, and Comparative Medicine at the University of Glasgow.

Details

To run a practical, you first need to load up the learnr package (see Examples). To reset a practical, click on the Start Over link (look for the tiny grey text below the left menu). To close a practical, close the window, then click on the red STOP button in RStudio to end the process.

The following tutorials are included in this package:

• 1-1 Exponential growth model; Writing scripts and commenting code

• 1-2 Exponential growth model; Writing functions

• 1-3 Exponential growth model; Sourcing code

• 1-4 Exponential growth model; Generalising and structuring code

• 1-5 Births and deaths model; Generalising code

• 1-6 Births and deaths model; Writing reports in RStudio

• 2-1 SIS model; Adapting previous code

• 2-2 SIS model; Changing the timestep

• 2-3 SIS model; Using while() loops

• 2-4 SIR model; Adapting previous code

• 3-1 Writing an R package

• 3-2 Stochastic population growth model; Using stop()

• 3-3 Stochastic births and deaths model; Passing functions as arguments

• 3-4 Stochastic SIS model

• 3-5 Stochastic SIR model

• 3-6 Compare the mean stochastic model to the deterministic SIR model

• 4-1 Biodiversity; Writing a data package

• 4-2 Biodiversity; Writing a package demo

• 4-3 Biodiversity; Adding package functions and documentation

• A-1 Introduction to if statements

• A-2 Introduction to functions

• A-3 Naming of things
