Description:
The course teaches advanced topics in R programming that become increasingly relevant for everyday applications in both applied and theoretical econometrics and empirical economics. It covers, amongst other topics, advanced concepts in programming (object orientation, profiling, debugging), packages for modern applications in data science and cutting-edge R extensions, e.g., for parallel computing and C++ integration.
A good understanding of basic R programming is required!
