How do I load packages into R studio ?

General
#1

Hi,

I have set my working directory and have storng internet connection, however R will not allow me to instal any packages and this is what keeps coming up in the console after trying to install ....

install.packages("trend")
also installing the dependencies ‘Rcpp’, ‘extraDistr’
Error in install.packages : Line starting '<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLI ...' is malformed!

The stackoverflow post linked below suggests

install.packages("trend", method = "libcurl")

Please let me know if that worked. I would not have guessed that solution!

try the below option, nice and clean approach

if (!require("pacman"))
  install.packages("pacman")
pacman::p_load(shiny, shinydashboard, RPostgreSQL, dplyr, ggplot2, DT)
