Basic R workshop - README

Welcome! Here are some instructions to get ready for the basic R workshop at the Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology.

Downloading R and RStudio

Different R versions can be downloaded from the Comprehensive R Archive Network website. RStudio can be downloaded from its website. In both cases, choose the latest version available for your operating system.

The download and installation should be pretty straight-forward, if you have trouble check this link. If you still have troubles, don't worry, we'll help you before the workshop.
