We’ve been teaching R workshops for over a year now at the University of Melbourne, and one thing we’ve noticed is the disparity in skill level among workshop attendees. Researchers generally fall into one of two catergories:

Absolute novices: those who have heard of R, but have never touched a programming language before.
Regular users: those who are using R in their research, possibly on a regular basis. They can modify scripts, and have a general understanding of the language basics, but want to extend their knowledge.
