Certification Back to Top

The R Programming Certification ensures you know planning, production and measurement techniques needed to stand out from the competition. 

R offers a wide variety of statistics-related libraries and provides a favorable environment for statistical computing and design. In addition, the R programming language gets used by many quantitative analysts as a programming tool since it's useful for data importing and cleaning.

Python is beginner-friendly, which can make it a faster language to learn than R. Depending on the problem you are looking to solve, R is better suited for data experimentation and exploration. Python is a better choice for large-scale applications and machine learning.

R and Python are both open-source programming languages with a large community. New libraries or tools are added continuously to their respective catalog. R is mainly used for statistical analysis while Python provides a more general approach to data science.

R programming is a relatively simple scripting language and learning to use R to get statistical packages is not hard. Also commonly used in data science, R has a simple syntax that is easy to learn. However, the R programming language has some inconsistencies, which can make learning hard.

Uplatz online training guarantees the participants to successfully go through the  R Programming Certification provided by Uplatz. Uplatz provides appropriate teaching and expertise training to equip the participants for implementing the learnt concepts in an organization.

Course Completion Certificate will be awarded by Uplatz upon successful completion of the R Programming online course.
