Data visualization plays an essential role in the representation of both small and large-scale data; a picture speaks a thousand words, as they say. One of the key skills for a data scientist is the ability to tell a compelling story through the visualization of data. R is an open-source programming language that is widely used to achieve this.

In this course, you will learn how to leverage R to visualize data, extract information, and enable an organization to make informed decisions. You will explore how to take data that at first glance offers little meaning and present it in a form that makes sense and provides meaningful insights. You will learn how to create various graphics and charts, including bar charts, histograms, pie charts, scatter plots, line plots, word clouds, radar charts, waffle charts, and box plots. Plus, you will investigate how to customize the look and feel of these graphics and charts.

For individuals keen to develop the skills required to interpret data as a compelling story, and visualize data and findings in an approachable and stimulating way, this course is ideal. Master these critical skills now and boost your career in data science.
