Pointers on Getting Started with R

R tutorials

This is perhaps a nice starting point to learn R:

http://www.cyclismo.org/tutorial/R/

There is a longer and more comprehensive intro to R, which you probably want to treat as a "reference":

https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-intro.html

Browse the TOC and become familiar with it; then when you need to do certain thing, you'll know where to look for help. (Don't worry: you'll not need everything in this document.)

The Carpentries has some lessons on R which you could try--but these are meant for in-person workshops, so they are best followed step-by-step (and you should try it on your R environment to see what the effect of each command is):

These lessons use RStudio, which you have, so you're good. The first set of lessons may be the best bang for your time. The second set is more advanced, but it could be useful when you are on the next stage of the development.
