[Mitarbeiter.zoologie] downloading 'rethinking'

[Patrycja]

Dear all,

 

I found a solution to my problem with the installation of ‘rethinking’. 

 

I got held back at: 

install.packages("jsonlite", type = "source")

After getting an error running this line, I deleted my .RData file (in Documents folder) and deleted additional line of text that appeared in .Renviron. Then, jsonlite installation worked.

 

When installing ‘rethinking’ package I had to install shape manually. I used:

install.packages(c("mvtnorm","loo","coda"), repos="https://cloud.r-project.org/",dependencies=TRUE)

options(repos=c(getOption('repos'), rethinking='http://xcelab.net/R'))

install.packages('shape', dependencies = TRUE)

install.packages('rethinking',type='source')

 

I hope this helps someone.

 

Best

Patrycja

dear statistical re-thinkers,

 

i have tried to download the package ‘rethinking’, which we need for going through the statistical rethinking book, by using the instructions in the book, but i got several errors.

 

i have then tried this code:

 

install.packages(c("mvtnorm","loo","coda"), repos="https://cloud.r-project.org/",dependencies=TRUE)

options(repos=c(getOption('repos'), rethinking='http://xcelab.net/R'))

install.packages('rethinking',type='source’)

 

which worked for me

 

hopefully you won’t have any problem with the installation of 'rethinking'. but please remember that, as the book said: “You should install rstan first.”

 

have a good evening

 

antonella
