##Data Science Seminar##\\ Hosted by Department of Mathematical Sciences ~~META:title=March 21, 2017~~ * Date: Tuesday, March 21, 2017 * Time: 12:00-1:00 * Room: WH-100E * Speaker: [[people:udang:start]] (Mathematical Sciences and CLT at Binghamton University) * Title: Tools for Efficient Statistical Computing in R **//Abstract//** R has emerged as the //de facto// language for statistical model development and prototyping. In this talk, I will touch on a variety of ways for efficient and reproducible statistical computing using R. The objective is for R programmers and end users to incorporate productive coding habits and guidelines for a more efficient workflow. We will discuss code repositories, version control, literate programming, C++ integration in R code, and generally best practices for statistical computing in R. We will finish with a short demonstration.
