The [data-recur](https://scicloj.github.io/docs/community/groups/data-recur/) group will have its next meeting on Jan 31st.
This will be a beginning of a series of meetups, where we introduce the R languages and its ecosystem to the Clojure crowd.
While Clojure already has an established collection of libraries for data science, it can be enlightening for Clojurians to learn about a different-but-similar language. A few of the Clojure data science libraries, such as [Tablecloth](https://scicloj.github.io/tablecloth/) and [Tableplot](https://scicloj.github.io/tableplot), are explicitly inspired by R and its packages. To encourage additional inspiration of this kind, we will host a few meetings for the Clojure audience to discuss R and its relationship with Clojure.
## Agenda for this meeting
- The [R](https://www.r-project.org/) language
- The [Tidyverse](https://www.tidyverse.org/) packages
- A small example
- Discussion
## Joining 👈
- Please mark your participation using the **`Your rsvp`** button at the top of this page (requires Clojureverse login).
- Please join the [Clojurians Zulip chat](https://scicloj.github.io/docs/community/chat/) beforehand.
- You can also use the **`Add to Calendar`** button to add the event to your calendar.
## Preparing for this meeting
Before the meeting, it is recommended to install [R](https://www.r-project.org/) and the [Tidyverse](https://www.tidyverse.org/) package in your system and play with the R REPL a little bit.
## Length
The official part will be 90 minutes long.
Sometimes some of us like to stay longer and chat.
## Platform
- Video meeting: [Launch Meeting - Zoom](https://bit.ly/data-recur-zoom)
- Text chat: We will use the [#data-recur](https://clojurians.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/330726-data-recur) Zulip stream (requires Zulip login).
## Recording
Some parts of the meeting will be recorded and probably shared publicly.
Some parts will be unrecorded.

We haven’t got much response to this.
Is anybody interested in this upcoming series?
