not able to run Swirl #669

I upgraded R to 3.4.2, not sure why I can't run swirl as I used before.

library("swirl") Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘swirl’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]): there is no package called ‘RCurl’

I encountered the same too.

Have you found the solution

seankross commented 6 years ago

Try: install.packages("RCurl")

Thanks Tayyab-Ghaffar and seankross. After few days, till today I re-installed swirl and it magically works. I have no idea what was going on but thanks for your response.

I am having a similar problem but with the package "digest" instead. I've tried your suggestion for installing it alone or re-installing R and Rstudio but neither fixes the problem. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
