Installation of Swirl - Issue at Step 3 #35

Closed KerryGMcC closed 10 years ago

KerryGMcC commented 10 years ago

Hi

I heard about your program through Dave Giles' blog. I am going to be using R in my PhD but am a total beginner so am hoping to make working through Swirl my holiday PhD goal.

I am working on my personal computer, an HP, using Windows.

My R version number is R version 3.0.2 (2013-09-25) -- "Frisbee Sailing" Copyright (C) 2013 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Platform: i386-w64-mingw32/i386 (32-bit)

I managed to install R, and devtools without too much hassle. I did have to select devtools of the toolbar drop menu as using the command given in step 2 was not working.

With Step 3, installing Swirl, I am not having any luck and would appreciate any help you can provide.

I have used the command you provide, and am getting the following error message: Error: could not find function "install_github"

I have this message that all the following were installed successfully: package ‘stringr’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked package ‘bitops’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked package ‘httr’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked package ‘RCurl’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked package ‘memoise’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked package ‘whisker’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked package ‘evaluate’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked package ‘digest’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked package ‘devtools’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked

Kind Regards

Kerry

After digging a bit more on your website I managed to get it to work, busy updating swirl and then will get to start with 'classes'.

Thanks
