RE: How can I install Rstudio on ubuntu?
I can't seem to find it in the package sources
You can install RStudio on Ubuntu by downloading it directly from the RStudio website. Here's a step-by-step guide:
1. **Install R**: RStudio is an IDE for R, so you first need to install R. Open terminal, and paste the following commands:
```
sudo apt update
sudo apt install r-base
```
After running these commands, you should have R installed. You can verify this by running `R --version` in your terminal.
2. **Download RStudio**: Visit the RStudio download page at `https://www.rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download/#download` and download the appropriate version for your system. Assuming you are running a 64-bit system, you would select "RStudio x.yy.zz - Ubuntu 18/Debian 10 (64-bit)".
3. **Install RStudio**: Once the download is completed, navigate to your download directory. You should see a .deb file for RStudio. Install it by running:
```
sudo dpkg -i rstudio-x.yy.zz-amd64.deb
```
Replace "x.yy.zz" with the version you downloaded. If you face any missing dependencies issue, run `sudo apt --fix-broken install` to resolve it and then retry the above command.
After following these steps, you should have RStudio installed. You can launch it by typing `rstudio` in your terminal.
