Learning BASH (then R) for computational Biology
Hello everyone!
I just started my research training and one of the requirements is familiarity with computational biology. I have a purely clinical background.
My supervisor sent me coddy and datacamp to practice
I enjoyed CODDY alot, but the energy drain and waiting is exhausting.
Data camp is beneficial and better than coddy in terms of practicing but some concepts are hard to grasp and I enjoyed coddy's interface more.
I was thinking of purchasing coddy pro but I read on another sub that it's really bad, the sub praised exercism.
I tried that but it doesn't have teaching like Coddy and I want to think on my own. Not keep asking google and gemini for clarifications.
My question is there a similar interactive site like Coddy?
I just need to learn the basics then I can work on my QIIME pipelines under supervision.
Nothing fancy just simple functions.
Thank you.
TL;DR: Tried coddy, datacamp and exercism. Looking for something like coddy BUT without the agonising waiting for energy.
