R is a free and open-source programming language that is particularly powerful for data exploration, visualization, and statistical analysis. We use RStudio to interact with R.
Please download R for Windows from CRAN to install R, and also install the RStudio IDE. If you have separate user and admin accounts, please run the installers as an administrator by right-clicking on the .exe file and selecting "Run as administrator" instead of double-clicking. Otherwise, problems may arise later when installing R packages.
