PHSR 704
Statistical Programming for Population Health Sciences II
Samir S. Soneji
Description from DukeHub
Students will build on programming learned in Population Health Sciences 703 using the SAS Software System and R Statistical Computing Platform. Students will continue to learn to write code to perform descriptive, statistical, and graphical analyses; write maintainable code to test for correctness and to apply basic principles of reproducibility. Programming techniques and their applications will be closely connected with the methods and examples presented in the concurrent course Population Health Sciences 702. Prerequisite: Population Health Sciences 703.
