Data Handling听

Good data organization is the foundation of any research project. Most researchers have data in spreadsheets, so it鈥檚 the place that many research projects start.

In order to use tools that make computation more efficient, such as programming languages like R or Python, we need to structure our data the way that computers need the data. Since this is where most research projects start, this is where we want to start too!

In this lesson, you will learn:

  • Good data entry practices - formatting data tables in spreadsheets

  • How to avoid common formatting mistakes

  • Approaches for handling dates in spreadsheets

  • Basic quality control and data manipulation in spreadsheets

  • Exporting data from spreadsheets
