You will probably want to bring your laptop for this course (although we will be in a PC cluster in case you don't have a laptop). Beforehand, on your laptop you should install R (the language) and RStudio (the interface that helps us interact with R) - each is available for OSX, Windows, and various flavours of Unix. You can install R from here:
https://www.stats.bris.ac.uk/R/
And RStudio from here:

Below are some helpful R resources - it would be useful to look at the first one before the workshop.
This is a very clear and focused introduction to R, RStudio, and R Markdown. You probably want to read the first four chapters sooner rather than later...
This is the online interactive version of the book of the same name. It's a great book to introduce you to data science, reproducibility, and R.
