How to Effectively Structure Data Science Projects in R (Episode 11)

The Effective Data Scientist

In this episode, Paolo and Thomas dive into the fundamental principles for a well-structured data science project. These include practical advice on:

• organizing files into folders,

• documenting and commenting code,

• using version control systems and much more.

Although the episode focuses on applying these fundamental principles in R projects, you want to apply the same principles to any Data Science project, regardless of the language used.
