Course Description:

Hey there, data wranglers and analysts! 🌍

Are you feeling a bit stuck at an intermediate level with the Tidyverse? You've mastered the essential functions like mutate, filter, select, and arrange, but now you're hungry for more? You're in luck! 🍀

I, Christian Burkhart, have crafted this course precisely for those who seek to elevate their Tidyverse skills beyond the basics. This is your stepping stone from being a competent user to a Tidyverse expert.

While there are numerous resources out there that cover the fundamentals of the Tidyverse, it's a different story when it comes to diving into the advanced features and tips that truly set apart an adept programmer from a master. Most of these gems are scattered across forums, blog posts, and documentation. That's why I embarked on a mission back in June 2022: to curate all these valuable insights into one comprehensive resource.

This course isn't just a series of videos; it's a treasure trove of knowledge. You'll get your hands on a 360-page PDF book that complements the video content and delves even deeper into certain topics, with some exclusive content not covered in the videos. 📖

Here's a sneak peek at what you'll learn:

Improve Reading Files:

• Change column naming conventions upon reading data.
• Read multiple files from the same folder efficiently.
• Navigate through nested folders to read in data seamlessly.

Improve Working with Columns:

• Select columns using tidyselect and regular expressions for that precise column grab.
• Rename several columns at once, saving you time and effort.

Improve Creating and Modifying Columns:

• Bin continuous variables for categorical analysis.
• Create new columns from existing ones or anonymize data for privacy and security.
• Mask values to handle missing or outlier data points effectively.
• Lump factor levels to streamline your categorical data processing.
• Order factor levels in a logical sequence for better data interpretation.
• Apply functions across multiple columns without breaking a sweat.

Improve Working with Rows:

• Filter rows based on conditions across multiple columns for more nuanced data selection.
• Enhance slicing of rows to access specific parts of your dataset quickly.
• Perform rowwise calculations for more granular data manipulation.

Improve Working with Incomplete Data:

• Expand data frames and create complete combinations of values to handle missing data.

Improve Converting Data Frames Between Longer and Wider Formats:

• Make a data frame longer or wider, depending on your analysis needs.

Improve Your Tidyverse Fundamentals:

• Utilize {{{{` within functions to access nested data.

Improve Your Purrr Skills:

• Understand the nuances of vectors, lists, and data frames.
• Master the map function family for more effective data transformations.
• Learn to use safely, possibly, map_vec, and other purrr functions like a pro.
• Apply map2 and pmap for complex operations on nested data structures.
• Create plots and fit models from nested tibbles, handling complex datasets with ease.
• Use the walk function family to perform intermediate steps during pipeline operations.

This course is designed to take about 10 to 15 hours of your time to fully grasp the content. By the end, you'll be a much more adept Tidyverse programmer, ready to tackle complex data analysis tasks with confidence and skill. 🏆

Don't let your Tidyverse journey stagnate at the basics. Join me, and together we'll unlock advanced techniques that will transform the way you manipulate and analyze data. Let's elevate your data game to new heights! 🌟
