Hi everyone,
I'm a newbie and interested in installing the R statistics package on a Centos-4 machine using yum, if possible. From the R website, I see that I can download an rpm for rhel 4. I don't know if the equivalent exists for Centos. I did look through the list that 'yum list available' yields and didn't seem to find a package for R.
Can you recommend how best to install R? Should I install the rhel 4 binary or should I compile from source? How do I use yum to install a downloaded rpm? etc.
Thanks for your help, Allison
