Live Analytics Lab

Code, statistics & dashboards in your browser — no install.

Six free tools — full code notebooks, point-and-click statistics, and live dashboards. All in your browser, in seconds.

New to R or Python?

Learn the basics by running the code.

Free lessons from Business Analytics for Decision Making. Every example runs inside the page, and each one has a Try here box to type your own code. Nothing to install and no sign-in — the first lesson you open takes a few seconds to warm up.

Four lessons from first script to loops — the ground you need before regression or ggplot.

  1. 1. Overview of R and RStudio
  2. 2. Data structures
  3. 3. Functions
  4. 4. Statements and looping

Six lessons from the language itself through the three libraries analytics runs on.

  1. 1. Understanding Python
  2. 2. Data types
  3. 3. Operators

  5. 5. pandas
  6. 6. SciPy

How it works

From click to code in under a minute.

1

Click Launch

A clean R or Python environment opens in a new tab. Loading takes a few seconds — no setup, no sign-up.

2

Write & run code

Real RStudio or Jupyter, full functionality. Standard packages preinstalled — load datasets, run models, plot results.

3

Save before you close

Sessions are temporary. Download your scripts or notebooks locally before closing the tab — see the heads-up below.

Heads up

Sessions are temporary & private — your work disappears when the tab closes. Always download your .R / .ipynb files locally before you finish.

Try this first

A taste of what you can do.

Paste either snippet into a fresh session to see the environment in action.

R · RStudio
# A quick look at the iris dataset
summary(iris)
plot(iris$Sepal.Length, iris$Petal.Length,
     col = iris$Species, pch = 19,
     main = "Sepal vs Petal Length")
Python · Jupyter
# Load a sample dataset and plot it
import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

iris = sns.load_dataset("iris")
sns.scatterplot(data=iris,
                x="sepal_length",
                y="petal_length",
                hue="species")
plt.show()
