A Getting the software
A.1 Pre-requisites
This book uses an R package, dfstools
. You will need the following pre-requisites:
- R: 3.5.1 or later. Technically, any R version 3.5.0 should work, but I only can support the most recent version.
- RStudio: Version 1.2.1186 or later. This is currently a preview release (2018-12-17) but is stable enough for daily use.
- Git: version 2.20 or later.
A.2 Installing dfstools
- Open RStudio.
- In the R console, type
update.packages()
. - If you haven’t installed
devtools
yet, install it withinstall.packages("devtools")
. devtools::install_github("znmeb/dfstools", force = TRUE, build_vignettes = TRUE, quiet = TRUE)
.
A.3 dfstools
documentation
dfstools
has a pkgdown
site at https://znmeb.github.io/dfstools. You’ll also have this documentation available in RStudio after you install dfstools
.

or want to request a feature.
