I'm attempting to install the R
package leaps
. I'm not doing anything out of the ordinary, just a simple package installation, but it appears the package doesn't exist or can't be found.
> install.packages(leaps)
Error in install.packages : object 'leaps' not found
I was wondering if this is a new issue? I'm installing using R Studio on a PC for clarification.
CodePudding user response:
Try
install.packages("leaps")
As an explanation, this is quoting the name of the package, as it doesn't exist as a variable in your workspace. To further confuse things, non-standard evaluation in R lets you sometimes use unquoted column names (eg in ggplot
), but this is not one of those times.
