Description
Parallel Computing with R & RStudio: Complete Tutorial Guide!In this course, we'll start by introducing the fundamentals of parallel computing, breaking down how it works. Following that, we'll walk through examples of code that's slow and needs speeding up. We'll then download, install, and explore the R packages designed for this, discussing the advantages and disadvantages of each tool.  We will learn how the R Compiler can be leveraged to optimize parallel computing processes.The goal is to make the complex world of parallel computing accessible and practical for everyone.Why R, RStudio, and Posit?R is one of the simplest languages to learn and is very friendly with data manipulation.R is open source and is part of a large community of developers that create and maintain packages we will explore during this course.RStudio is probably the best IDE for programmers (also supports C++, Python, SQL, and other languages).As of the end of 2023, R is rocking it with these cool numbers:RStudio has an active user base of 3.5 million.Posit cloud has a 65,000 userbase.Over the year, an impressive 2 billion packages were downloaded.Embark on this learning journey today! Download R and RStudio to get hands-on with parallel computing, and let's unlock the full potential together!Which Packages will be covered?Learn how to install R packages for parallel computing:purrr: set of tools for working with functions and vectorsdoSNOW: parallel backend of "for" loopsfurrr: combine purrr's family of mapping functions with future's parallel processing capabilitiesmultidplyr:  backend for dplyr that spreads work across multiple processesSupporting Packages used:base R: for loops, apply functionsdplyr: data manipulation with a very user-friendly syntax tidyr: data clean-up, remove duplicates, NA's etc.rvest: web scrapingtidytext: text mining for statistical analysisAbout ArkadiArkadi Avanesyan is a world-class expert in Finance, Investment Banking, Technology, and Data Science.Arkadi has a BSc in Engineering and MSc in Quantitative Finance from the Free University of Brussels.
