problem with factoextra installation

General

Hello,

I am not able to install the factoextra package and don't understand why, can someone help me ? I have a mac.

This is the message I get :

Warning in install.packages :
  dependency ‘pbkrtest’ is not available
also installing the dependencies ‘car’, ‘rstatix’, ‘ggpubr’


  There are binary versions available but the source versions are later:
           binary source needs_compilation
car         3.0-7  3.0-8             FALSE
rstatix     0.4.0  0.6.0             FALSE
ggpubr      0.2.5  0.4.0             FALSE
factoextra  1.0.6  1.0.7             FALSE

The downloaded source packages are in

Then :

> library(factoextra)
Error in library(factoextra) : there is no package called ‘factoextra’

Thank you !

Hi and welcome! Looks like you're on a old version of R and the pbkrtest package requires R 3.6 or higher. I would recommend updating to the most recent version of R (4.0.2) and retrying the installation. You can install R by clicking on your operating system here: https://cran.r-project.org/
