R project

In this course, we will work within a pre-made R project, so that everyone has the same files and folders. Before the course, please:

  1. Download it using the button below
  2. Move it to wherever you like on your computer
  3. Unzip it (on mac: double-click, on windows: right-click, then click extract all)

Individual data file downloads

If for whatever reason you need to download the data files separately, here they are. The paths used in this course assume they are named as-is and located in a folder called ‘data’ that exists in the current working directory.
