5.1 Create New Project
After installing R studio successfully the first step is to create a project R studio.
- Step 1: Go to File -> New Project
New Project
- Step 2: Select New Directory
New Directory
- Step 3: Select New Project
New Project
- Step 4: Give your preferred directory name like “Data101_Assignmnets”
Directory Name
- Step 5: Click on Create Project and finally the R studio should look like
Rstudio
5.2 How to upload a data set?
To upload the dataset/file present in csv format the read.csv() and read.csv2() functions are frequently used The read.csv() and read.csv2() have different separator symbol: for the former this is a comma, whereas the latter uses a semicolon.
There are two options while accessing the dataset from your local machine:
- To avoid giving long directory paths for accessing the dataset, one should use the command getwd() to get the current working directory and store the dataset in the same directory.
Getwd
- To access the dataset stored in the same directory one can use the following: read.csv(“MOODY_DATA.csv”).
Store the moody dataset in the same directory
- One can also store the dataset at a different location and can access it using the following command: (Suppose the dataset is stored inside the folder Data101_Tutorials on the desktop)
- For Windows Users.
- Example: read.csv("C:/Users/Desktop/Data101_Tutorials/MOODY_DATA.csv")
- For MAC Users.
- Example: read.csv("/Users/Desktop/Data101_Tutorials/MOODY_DATA.csv")
5.3 Saving your work
- To save your work go to File -> Save. It will ask you to give a name for your .R file and then click on Save.
Save
- After making modifications to your saved file, you will need to save the file again. If the name of the file on the top is in Red Color indicates that the file have unsaved changes.
Unsaved File
- Go to File -> Save to save your .R file again. After saving the file the color of the file name i.e. HW1.R will again change back to black.
Saved File
Note: You can create multiple files inside the same project such as for your each homework assignments
