Hi

I planned to learn R and their machine learning algorithms such as xgboost.
I just installed R 3.3 in our CentOS linux system.
Linus system: centos-release-6-9.el6.12.3.x86_64
I used the command: yum install R.
I successfully install "rJava" and "mlr" packages.
Then I used the following command:
install.packages("xgboost")
Unfortunately, I cannot install xgboost successfully.
Can anyone out there help me when you can get a chance.

Thanks
