This repository includes the following sub-folders:

• Data : data files
• Instructions : documents accompanying day 3-5 lectures. Available as PDF, HTML and/or word. These documents are created in R using markdown (hence the .Rmd that can be open directly in RStudio).
• my_R_scripts: an empty folder in which to save your scripts created in the module
• Output: where the output of your scripts should go
• Plots: where the figures you produce should go
• Presentations: contains the presentation (as pptx, PDF or links to online html presentations)
• R: contains scripts already written for the exercises. try writing your own before running these.

This is also an example folder structure useful for staying organized when working on an R project. You can set up a similar structure automaticly.
