Before you start

1. Install Rstudio

This workshop will use R as the base language for all computer exercises. I have made this site as user-friendly as possible, but it is good for you to have the basics of R under your belt before you embark on these lessons.

2. Install Packages

Run this code:

install.packages(c("igraph", "bipartite", "asnipe", "assortnet", "ggplot2", "ggmap", "rnetcarto", "ecodist", "igraphdata", "statnet", "RColorBrewer"))

3. Download data

Go to this link and download the compressed data files. Save the file into a folder that you can remember. This will allow us to run some of the examples even if internet access fails.
