Software

This lesson assumes you have current versions of RStudio Desktop installed on your computer. R is installed automatically as a part of RStudio.

  1. Open RStudio
  2. Enter install.packages("tidyverse") into the console and press enter.
  3. Installation may take several minutes to finish, wait until you see a > prompt with a blinking cursor in the console before closing RStudio.

You also need to download the dataset that will be used in this lesson. It can be found here, right-click on the link, click on Save Link as..., and save the file to a location where you can find it.
