• R 4.2.3 or above: https://cran.r-project.org
• RStudio 2023.03.0+386 or above: https://posit.co/download/rstudio-desktop
• Quarto 1.3.321: https://quarto.org/docs/get-started

2. R Packages

Install the following packages:

pkg_list <- c("tidyverse", "gt", "ggthemes", "palmerpenguins", 
              "quarto", "here", "usethis")
install.packages(pkg_list)

3. Exercises

Download and open the exercises for this session. The easiest way is to run this line of R code at the console in RStudio.

usethis::use_course("https://tinyurl.com/ohio-exercises")

If that doesn’t work, you can download a zip file of the exercises here, then open the directory. The qmd files can be opened in RStudio.
