Session 2 Practical -- getting started

There are a number of R scripts and two data files that we will use in the Session 2 practical. To copy these files into your own area:

Open the workshop SSH client
Create a directory for the session (mkdir)
mkdir day2

Change into that directory (cd)
cd day2

Copy (cp) over all the files (*) from my folder (/faculty/katrina/2022/) to your current directory (that’s what the fullstop indicates)
cp /faculty/katrina/2022/* .

Open the workshop Rstudio client
Open the folder day2 (bottom right quadrant of the screen)
Set this folder as your working directory. If you are in your home directory (which is where you will be first on login in), then you can set the working directory with this command:
setwd(‘day2’)
