Downloading and Installing R & RStudio for Windows

Hi. In this video, I'm going to show you
how you can download

and install R and R studio
on your windows computer.

So you will go ahead and open up a web

browser.

Mine is Google Chrome.

And you will go to the website

R project.org.

You will go ahead and click

the download R link.

And this is where you will select

your Cran mirror or

where R will be downloaded from.

So pick the location
that is closest to you.

So, I'm here in the United States.

So I will scroll down
to the United States.

Or you can always do this cloud one,
and that'll work just fine as well.

Go ahead and click download R for windows

and click install R for the first time.

And then hit

download R, And then whatever
version number

this might be updated by the time,
you watch this video.

R is continually updating.

So as long as you're
just getting the most recent one

that's on this page, that's
what's most important.

So go ahead and start downloading.

And once it is all downloaded,

go ahead and open up the file.

All right.

Go ahead and go to the installation
process.

Accepting all of these defaults.

Hopefully, it shouldn't take too long.

If you want, while we're waiting,

we can go to the website
where we can download our studio.

So you can go ahead and go to RStudio.

Dot com.

And then,

we will wait here until we're ready.

Okay.

And now it has been set up.

Go ahead and click finish.

So now you have downloaded
and installed R.

So now let's go ahead and download
and install our studio.

[e-mail] click the download button

and choose the RStudio desktop
free version.

We do not need you to pay for this.

Go ahead.

Make sure you already have R installed
which we do.

And go ahead and click this button
to install RStudio

for windows.

Okay.

Go ahead and open that up as well.

And then you'll

also go through and accept
all the defaults as well.

And install RStudio.

I'll go ahead and take a pause real quick

just while this, installs
so you don't have to sit here

and wait.

All right.

To my our studio is just about done.

Oh. It's done.

Perfect. Go ahead and click finish.

Okay.

Should be able to go ahead
and come to your start menu

and search for RStudio.

And when you open up our studio,
it should look something like this.

Or even just like this.

If you've gotten to this point,
this is great.

That means R and RStudio are working
great on your computer.

All right. See you in the next video.
