1. Overview of the practical:

In this experiment, we will install R language complier in our system.

2. Theory
Introduction to R
R is an open-source programming language mostly used for statistical computing and data
analysis and is available across widely used platforms like Windows, Linux, and MacOS. It generally
comes with the command-line interface and provides a vast list of packages for performing tasks. R is an
interpreted language that supports both procedural programming and object-oriented programming.

3. Steps for practical

For Windows, you take the following steps:

1. Go to CRAN, click Download R for Windows, click Base, and download the installer for the latest R
version.
2. Right-click the installer file and select Run as Administrator from the pop-up menu.
3. Select the language to be used during installation.

4. This doesn’t change the language used by R; all messages and Help files remain in English.

5. Follow the instructions of the installer.

6. You can safely use the default settings and just keep clicking Next until R starts installing.
