R Intro VI: Install Packages

• In the following lectures different packages from Bioconductor will be used. Usually packages are installed with the function install.packages(), but not packages from Bioconductor. The easiest way to install a Bioconductor package is to google "install bioconductor" and follow the instructions. Try installing the package limma.

• To use the limma package you need to load it with the library() function. Both

  library(limma)

  and

  library("limma")

  will do the job.

• We will not use the limma package until next week, but you can use the help() function or ? to read an introduction about the package.
