Message  
Other Since we will be using R in the exercises, please download it before the lecture (either R or R studio is fine).
However, you may use a different program as long as you can do the calculations.
Please note that we will not be able to answer any questions about programming languages if you use a different program. 
Please fill in the class improvement questionnaire which is carried out on all classes.
Instructors will reflect on your feedback and utilize the information for improving their teaching.
