Hi,
I've just bought a new laptop, which will have Ubuntu Linux
pre-installed.
When it arrives, one of the first things I want to do is to install R.
However, when I went to look at the instructions on the CRAN site, it
seems that they are geared towards computers that are connected to the
internet. Mine won't be: I've always reserved my home laptop for
working offline.
So my question is: Are there any instructions for installing R on an
offline Ubuntu machine? (This process was pretty straightforward with
the MS Windows distribution of R: you just downloaded the .exe setup
program and ran it...)
Many thanks,
Andrew Wilson
