Dharmendra Tirumalasetti, Associate Director of Statistical Programming, Wave Life Sciences 

One of the best trainings on R for SAS programmers and the cheat sheets are amazingly helpful. The R-Guru website is such a great place to look for any help on R programming with lots of information and examples.

Mark McLaughlin, Senior Director, Statistical Computing, Wave Life Sciences

Thanks Sunil! I’m happy to provide feedback on the class, as I’ve found it extremely helpful even after having started it halfway through. I’ve taken online R classes before but none of them have been geared towards SAS programmers nor towards those who work in the biotech/pharm industry. This is the first R course I’ve taken where concepts which are second nature to an R programmer made sense to my SAS brain. Your ability from the start to translate the things that we do every day in SAS to how they’re done in R made each subsequent lesson that much easier to manage. I’m looking forward to eventually seeing how we can incorporate R into our work beyond just generating really nice figures.

Sylvia Moleboheng, Senior Statistical Programmer, MMS

I am enjoying the class. I am learning a lot and I thought it was going to take me long to grasp some concepts but funny enough that's not the case. There's still a lot of concepts to fork through, but I like that I have some that I find easier to get, while others I will get with time.

Qian Yi Tan, High School Senior

I enjoyed the R class. I liked that I was able to pace myself and learn through application of sample code. I did learn to program better with the R class. Compared to my previous R class, this program was much more extensive. Your class was structured in a way that covered the different steps of coding for the Pharma industry such as learning basic data management operations, then creating SDTMs and ADAMs, and then creating graphs and tables based on those data frames. The website was organized very well with external links that to further explain the concept when I was confused.
