Introduction

R is a free software environment for statistical computing and graphics.

Using R on the HPC cluster

If you want to use R on the HPC cluster, you will have to load its module. You can do that by using the command

module load R

Since there is only one version of R installed, you dont need to specify a version. If you use the command

module spider R

you will find more informations about the module.

Installed version

The currently installed version of R is 3.3.1.

Additional installed packages

The R release contains a lot of additional packages. After loading and starting R ("module load R" and simply "R" on the command line), you can generate a list of all of them by using the following commands

ip <- as.data.frame(installed.packages()[,c(1,3:4)])
rownames(ip) <- NULL
ip <- ip[is.na(ip$Priority),1:2,drop=FALSE]
print(ip, row.names=FALSE)

You will receive a list of every package and its related version. It should look like this:

       Package     Version
           abc         2.1
      abc.data         1.0
         abind       1.4-3
       acepack     1.3-3.3
        adabag         4.1

Documentation

You can look up anything about R on their
