Many useful functions of R come in these packages. To install a package, simply run the following command in RStudio:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"EnlighterJSRAW\" data-enlighter-language=\"null\">&gt; install.packages(\u201c&lt;package name&gt;\u201d)<\/pre>\n<p>Once installed, a package can be made available in the current R session using the command:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"EnlighterJSRAW\" data-enlighter-language=\"null\">&gt; library(\u201c&lt;package name&gt;\u201d)<\/pre>\n<p>While it may become confusing at times due to the sheer number of options available, here are a few packages that are popular for their reliability and usefulness:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Tidyverse<\/strong> &#8211; Tidyverse is a collection of packages that work in harmony with each other to clean, process, model, and <strong>visualize data<\/strong>. Tidyverse\u2019s core package contains packages like ggplot2, dplyr, tidyr, readr, purrr, tibble, stringr, and forcats.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Installr<\/strong> &#8211; installr allows you to update R and all its packages with just a single command.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rtweet<\/strong> &#8211; Twitter is the prime target for <strong>extracting tweets<\/strong> and building models to understand and predict sentiment. The rtweet package allows you to scrap Tweets and perform <strong>sentiment analysis<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>MLR (Machine Learning in R)<\/strong> &#8211; MLR is a package that lets you perform all kinds of machine learning tasks. MLR includes all the popular machine learning algorithms used for ML projects.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Reticulate<\/strong> &#8211; Reticulate lets you use Python alongside with R in the R environment. Not only that, but you can also use major Python libraries within R itself.<\/li>\n<li><strong>R markdown<\/strong> &#8211; R markdown lets you create documents in multiple formats like pdf, HTML, and MS Word documents while embedding R codes, results, and visualizations to produce informative and thorough reports.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shiny<\/strong> &#8211; Shiny is an R package that lets you make <strong>interactive web-apps<\/strong>. Using shiny, you can embed the findings of your analysis into the web-apps. This enables the users to play with your data and the results for deeper understanding, resulting in improved communication of the results.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There are many more packages available on repositories like CRAN, Bioconductor, and GitHub that can be used to improve R\u2019s functions and facilities as well as to add new functions.<\/p>\n<p>As you use and explore R some more, you will discover more of them and find new and exciting uses for them all.<\/p>\n<h2>Summary<\/h2>\n<p>In this tutorial, we learned how to install R and RStudio in systems with Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X.<\/p>\n<p>We also learned about some useful R packages that improve and enhance R\u2019s capabilities and\u00a0prove to be highly useful.<\/p>\n<p>If you find any difficulty to install R and RStudio then ask us in the comment and our TechVidvans will be happy to help.<\/p>\n<p>Install R now and start learning R programming from scratch by following TechVidvan<em><strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/techvidvan.com\/tutorials\/r-tutorial\/\">R tutorial<\/a>.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Keep Learning!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Looking to install R and RStudio in different operating systems?
