Functional Programming with Purrr

Date and time: Wednesday 8th September 2021, 2pm-5pm BST

Level – Intermediate

Overview
R is a functional programming language. But what does that mean? What implications does it have on the way we work with it? How can we use this to our advantage? In this workshop, we will introduce the idea of functional programming and, in particular, focus on how we can use the purrr package to its full potential for functional programming. Starting with the map functions we will see how we can enhance our analysis code.
