Analyze Data: Visualize, Summarize, and R

In this module, you’ll learn the foundations of working with R to explore categorical financial data. You’ll start by setting up R, managing packages, and inspecting data frames to understand their structure and data types. Then, you’ll apply frequency analysis using simple commands, such as table() and count(), to identify activity patterns across departments, vendors, and expense categories. Through guided practice, hands-on labs, and interactive coaching, you’ll build confidence in interpreting categorical patterns and preparing financial data for deeper analysis
