In this part of the book, you'll learn how to get your into R. In this part of the book, you\'ll learn about data wrangling, the art of getting your data into R in a useful form for visualisation and modelling.
We'll focus on plain-text rectangular formats, spreadsheets, databases, and web data. Data wrangling is very important: without it you can\'t work with your own data!
Wrangle encompasses three parts of the data science flow: importing, tidying, and transforming.
