Statistics and Statistical Programming (Winter 2017)/Problem Set: Week 2

Programming Challenges

Because this is our first week, there are no real programming challenges this week. What we have instead are some setup tasks you'll need to do before class.

PC1. Download and install R — You can do that from this webpage where you will have to choose based on your operating system.

PC2. Download and install RStudio — Download and run the "installer" from the "Installers" sections of the RStudio download page. You'll want to choose the one that is appropriate for your operating systems (e.g., Windows, Mac OSX, or GNU/Linux).

PC3. Get setup with git and Github — You should do two things before class.

• First, create an account on Github.com
• Installing GitHub Desktop which includes versions for Windows and Mac. If you use Linux, contact me. Completing the setup will involve logging in your Github account.
