Abstract
Students who have never programmed are afraid that it is difficult. This course is designed to introduce them to the basics of programming languages such as R and Python. This course will discuss the difference between these languages, the strengths of each of them. Students will learn the basics of programming and working with these languages.

Assessment Elements
- Final project
- Homework assignmentsHomework R is designed for students to demonstrate their ability to use the R programming language effectively. It focuses on analytical thinking, basic statistical modeling, and data visualization. Students are encouraged to explore a topic of their choice, applying R tools creatively to real or simulated data. This homework must be completed individually. Homework Python allows students to present their skills in work with Python, and represents a creative homework where students can choose their own topic of Homework.
