Intro
I’ve been a dog trainer for many years and I do not believe that we can train anyone to become a good dog trainer. This is because some people are genetically predisposed to be good dog trainers and others aren’t.
And that’s the way it is with people, too. Some people are predisposed to be good doctors, others aren’t. And that’s the way it is with software developers: some of them are predisposed to be good engineers, others aren’t.
But if you take the time (and you must take the time!) to study human behavior and learn how to read people, you can develop a better understanding of your own skills and strengths as a programmer, which will make it much easier for you to select the right people in your team who also possess those skills. It will also help you in recruiting new programmers from outside your organization who want to work on projects whose quality you know will be higher than their own.
In this post I’ll explain what I mean by r training method .
The 4 Step r training Method
This is a book about training methods. It will cover most of the techniques and techniques we use at RStudio, but not necessarily their specific details. There are many books and articles on this topic, some of which are quite useful, but I’ve found that a few other books were actually more useful when I was learning. In this post, I want to share with you what I think are the best ones out there – all written by people who have been using these methods for a long time.
If you want to learn about training methods for yourself or for your team and really get the most out of it, go buy one or two of these books! But be warned: they’re not cheap (especially if you’re buying them in bulk), so don’t expect them to be free either.
This list is in no particular order!
(*) These fall into two main categories: books that teach specific techniques and books that don’t – which you may already know if you look through my other posts. The former are excellent resources and offer practical tips; the latter just aren’t as useful (for example, they have very little on how we structure our code). This is another reason why it’s important to pick a book by someone who has used the technique in question – it’s likely that they’ve used it elsewhere so they can talk about real-world examples and give insight into how things work with less theory than you’ll find elsewhere.)

How to Implement the r training Method
r training method is one of the most popular and popularized among web developers. It’s a simple idea: you first use r training to learn how to write code in Java; then you apply that knowledge and practice to your problem domain.
It’s a great way of learning programs, especially if done from a front-end perspective, because it gives you a clear view of how the program behaves. It’s also a great way to be able to test the quality and usability of your code before committing it to production. You can even use this as a sort of “brain dump” or “mental exercises” activity and practice them with your coworkers / co-workers / friends.
One caveat with r training is that although it works very well when done from inside your computer, the results are somewhat different when you do it outside (i.e., without being imprisoned in front of your computer). The reason for that is that when people are trying to learn something new, they forget about the fact that they were just doing it for themselves — their eyes wander off and they try to have fun while they are doing it, forgetting completely that they actually had to learn something rather than just playing around. This leads them into making mistakes (which are often difficult or impossible to fix) which take longer than they would if they were concentrating on their task at hand.
Another thing to note is that if you are only interested in learning one language, then r training may not be all that useful for you; because if you want to learn several languages based on what skills you need (e.g., web development or machine learning), then r training won’t do much good for you — unless starting from scratch! But if you want help learning another programming language (JavaScript for example), r training will still work well for this purpose since all languages share many similarities and there is plenty of material out there on them (see more info below).
The Outcomes of the r training Method
The r training method has been around for a long time (and it was used in sales training all the way back in the late 19th century). It’s really not that different from many other methods of teaching people to do something, such as the computer programming language of Ruby.
For example, there are various ways of learning how to write a program (such as using a book or online tutorials), but the r training method is more effective:
• It’s very effective for generating interest in the subject
• It’s very cost effective for one-to-one coaching and one-to-many support
So what exactly is it? It’s a method of “building skills”. The same thing you would do if you were an investment banker and wanted to develop your ability to make financial decisions. This can be anything from reading stock trading books (or listening to them) to creating financial spreadsheets. The idea is that through repetition and repetition, you will begin to build an understanding of something which will become useful when you are faced with similar problems on your own. In fact, this is the only time that we should use the word “learn” because it implies doing something at some point in the future — which we definitely don’t want when dealing with software development skills! Learning is learning by doing.
Next Steps
There are two main r training methods available to startups today: the r ‑based boot camp and the group r ‑based boot camp. The first one is relatively inexpensive, but not as well established as the second one. The reason for this is simple: they basically boil down to the same thing. They share the same goal – increasing the speed of learning – but with very different approaches to get there.
For instance, both are aimed at people who want to become better programmers, but in different ways. They’re two sides of the same coin: we all want to learn faster and be more productive, right? This has enabled a great deal of innovation that came out of these camps.
The difference between them lies in their learning methods:
• The r ‑based boot camp teaches programming from a practical point of view using tools like Vim and Git. This was inspired by companies like Reddit, which mentors many young coders (like myself) through its r ‑based boot camps . It’s all about learning how to code from scratch — it does not have a specific product or company behind it (it was launched in 2016).
I find it more effective than most other boot camps because you don’t have to learn how to code by yourself, you can do it with your friends… which means you will be very motivated by your peers and able to accomplish much faster what you would otherwise take months or years for yourself. It also helps because everyone learns at his/her own pace; there is no prep time before classes start, so you can take classes when you feel like it and not worry about getting rusty at the last minute or having an incident before classes start (that would throw off your schedule). And those students who complete their course early will be much more likely than others to stick with programming (as they are already technical users in their daily lives).
• The r ‑based boot camp uses a more formal approach that takes courses over many months: through lectures (which could consist of video recordings), exercises, quizzes etc., over several days or even weeks during which participants have mandatory exercise and/or assignment time-boxes. There is usually an end goal in sight — either passing a certification exam or becoming a full-time programmer — but how this overall process turns out is up to participants themselves; some may choose not use any certification whatsoever; others may decide on going for certifications while they
