Chapter 2 Preparing for the workshop
Before you can effectively start this workshop, you will need to install the R and RStudio softwares on your computer.
To install R, go to http://www.r-project.org/ and click on download. You will have to select a mirror site (usually one close to you) and select your platform (OS X, Windows or Linux). Download the file and launch it to complete the installation. You don’t have to change the default settings.
To install RStudio, go to http://www.rstudio.com/ and select RStudio from the Products tab. Click on the open source version of RStudio Desktop and select your platform to download it. Launch the file you just downloaded to complete the installation. Again, you can keep the default settings.
