In our previous article, we described what is R and why you should learn R. In this article, we’ll describe briefly how to install R and RStudio on Windows, MAC OSX and Linux platforms. RStudio is an integrated development environment for R that makes using R easier. It includes a console, code editor and tools for plotting.
To make things simple, we recommend to install first R and then RStudio.
R can be downloaded and installed on Windows, MAC OSX and Linux platforms from the Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) webpage (http://cran.r-project.org/).
- After installing R software, install also the RStudio software available at: http://www.rstudio.com/products/RStudio/.
Install R for windows
- Download the latest version of R, for Windows, from CRAN at : https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/
Double-click on the file you just downloaded to install R
Cick ok –> Next –> Next –> Next …. (no need to change default installation parameters)
Install Rtools for Windows
Rtools contains tools to build your own packages on Windows, or to build R itself.
- Download Rtools version corresponding to your R version at: https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/. Use the latest release of Rtools with the latest release of R.
- Double-click on the file you just downloaded to install Rtools (no need to change default installation parameters)
Download the latest version of R, for MAC OSX, from CRAN at : https://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/
Double-click on the file you just downloaded to install R
Cick ok –> Next –> Next –> Next …. (no need to change default installation parameters)
Download and install the latest version of RStudio for MAC at: https://www.rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download/
- R can be installed on Ubuntu, using the following Bash script:
sudo apt-get install r-base
- RStudio for Linux is available at https://www.rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download/
To install the latest version of R for linux, read this: Installing R on Ubuntu
It is relatively simple to install R, but if you need further help you can try the following resources:
