Data Visualisation and Beautiful Report Design
Communication is the last and most delicate step following the analysis. It communicates sophisticated results to people unrelated to technology and without profound statistical skills, making your work usable and sellable to business. Therefore it is important to know how to convey the message in a simple way with the help of expressive and well thought-out graphics. Finally, we will look at the R technologies to make the reports reproducible on updated data at the cost of a click. You will learn how to use ggplot2 as well as other interactive JS visualization tools. You will also learn how to build a customized and automated PDF or HTML reports, or even slides, with R Markdown.
