Excellent course! I already knew a lot about R - but this class helped me solidify what I already knew, taught me lots of new tricks, and now I have a certificate that says I know `something' about R!

Really interesting course. The interactive coding sessions with swirl are especially useful. Would be great, if you provided sample solutions for the programming assignments, in particular for week 4.

There was some mismatches between what was thought in the lectures and what was tested as part of assignment.

If the lecture could be practical (i.e... lectures + working it on R console), I would learn it even better.

I think more detail statements are needed on PDF.

Because I'm not good at listening, so I studied by PDF.
