Dear All, Ages ago I posted to this mailing list asking for advice about to evangelize the use of R in an international public administration where the fact that R is free is not a decisive factor (actually its being "freeware" may even be seen negatively). After a long time, I think it is worthwhile asking the question again and see what suggestions other users have.
Another question related to that: let's say you have the possibility to give a short course (most likely short of 10 hours) to people who are not trained in statistics (people with a background in international relations or political scientists frustrated at Excel and who sometimes have to do a number of repetitive tasks). How would you formulate a short training to make them not R proficient users, but aware and looking forward to learning more about R? Any suggestion and/or pointer to online resources is appreciated. Many thanks Lorenzo ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
