What we’re about

We are the local R user group for Cape Town, South Africa.

In 2025 we are partnering with the R user group in Johannesburg to share our interests in R. The talks will be hybrid but we encourage everyone to attend in person where possible - for the vibes!

What is R? R is a programming language for statistical computing, data analysis and visualisation of data. R is free and open source. Learn more at http://www.r-project.org/.

Our goals: Our purpose is to bring R users together to help each other with common problems, exchange knowledge and share experiences.
Secondly, this group intends to spread the use of R in South Africa and show others (also non-R users) the benefits of using R.
