Materials for the R Hector tutorial for the 2021 Annual GCIMS Meeting. While having experience with R is helpful it is not essential. The objective of the tutorial is to provide some hands-on experience with Hector and may cover some basic R & R studio concepts. To learn more about R programming we direct attendees to checkout the NSF's Resources for Learning R.
Before beginning, tutorial attendees should ensure that both R and Rstudio are installed on their machines.

- Install Rstudio, the IDE we will use with R from here.
Window Users Only If you are working on a Windows machine you will complete an additional step and install RTools, see here for details.
