1. R requirement

R (http://www.r-project.org) is a language and environment for statistical computing and graphics. We assume R (version 3.1.0) has been installed in your local machine. It can be installed following quick instructions below for different platforms (Windows, Mac, and Linux).

Assume you have a ROOT (sudo) privilege:

sudo su
wget http://www.stats.bris.ac.uk/R/src/base/R-3/R-3.1.0.tar.gz
tar xvfz R-3.1.0.tar.gz
cd R-3.1.0
./configure
make
make check
make install
R # start R

Assume you do not have a ROOT privilege and want R installation under your home directory (below /home/hfang should be replaced with yours):

wget http://www.stats.bris.ac.uk/R/src/base/R-3/R-3.1.0.tar.gz
tar xvfz R-3.1.0.tar.gz
cd R-3.1.0
./configure --prefix=/home/hfang/R-3.1.0
make
make check
make install
/home/hfang/R-3.1.0/bin/R # start R

2. Installation of the package

    if(!require(pkg, character.only=T)) biocLite(pkg)
}
