This page provides an overview of the available videos in the Radiant Tutorial Series. For each of the modules
below, it is useful to leverage RStudio Projects to set up the environment to more easily access data and models
from Radiant. Open RStudio and cut/paste the given command + URL into the console. This will download the
assignment and supporting files and subsequently open a new RStudio project. You will know it is working if
you look at the top right-hand corner of RStudio and see the module name (e.g., "decision_tree") and see
the relevant module files in the bottom right pane. From here, you will simply need to click on "Addins" on the
top menu and then "Start radiant" to follow along with the tutorial.
In additional to the links below, you can access the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLNhtaetb48EdKRIY7MewCyvb_1x7dV3xw" target="_blank">tutorial playlist</a> on Youtube.
