About This Page

This page features video tutorials and resources to help you do political analysis with R. We created this page, and related pages, to supplement our R Companion to Political Analysis. Where possible, we leverage existing videos, but have created a number of custom videos and online code demos for our textbook. These resources focus on using R for data analysis, rather than programming R.
