We will compute the value of mathematical constant e.
Remember, e is the base of the natural logarithm. In the Terminal, type exp followed by 1 in parentheses and press Enter. |
| Highlight 2.718 in the Terminal | The required value is displayed.
It means that R has been installed successfully. Now, we will proceed to install RStudio. |

For this, we need to download the corresponding d e b file using the w get command. |
| [Terminal]
sudo apt-get install -y g++ wget |
Let us install the w get utility first.
In the Terminal, type the following command and press Enter. We will wait until the installation of w get is complete. |
| Highlight Setting up wget in the Terminal | w get is now installed on the machine. |
| Cursor in the Terminal | I will clear the Terminal before moving further. |
| [Terminal]
cd |
We will change the working directory to Home.
In the Terminal, type cd and press Enter. Let us download the d e b file for RStudio version 1.1.463. |
| [Terminal] | In the Terminal, type the following command and press Enter.
We will wait until the d e b file has been downloaded. |
| Highlight rstudio-1.1.463-amd64.deb saved in the Terminal | The d e b file has been downloaded. |
| [Terminal]
clear |
I will clear the Terminal again. |
| Cursor on the terminal. | Now, we need to install g d e b i utility.
This will allow us to install d e b files on our machine. |
| [Terminal]
sudo apt-get install -y gdebi-core |
In the Terminal, type the following command and press Enter.
We will wait until the installation of g d e b i is complete. |
| Highlight Setting up gdebi-core in the Terminal | g d e b i has been installed. |
| [Terminal]
clear |
I will clear the Terminal. |
| [Terminal]
sudo gdebi rstudio-1.1.463-amd64.deb |
Now, we will install the d e b file for RStudio using g d e b i utility.
In the Terminal, type the following command and press Enter. |
| Highlight Do you want to install the software package? [y/N] in the Terminal | It will ask Do you want to install the software package?
Press y to continue. We will wait until the installation of RStudio is complete. |
| Highlight Processing triggers in the Terminal | RStudio has been installed. |
| [Terminal]
clear |
I will clear the Terminal again. |
| [Terminal]
rstudio |
Now we will verify whether RStudio has been installed successfully.
In the Terminal, type rstudio and press Enter. |
| Highlight RStudio window | RStudio is launched. |
| Highlight the greater than symbol in the Console window | Now, we will run a plot command. |
| [RStudio]
