5.1 Install

First we are going to use install.packages() to install tidyverse. Then we are going to load tidyverse with the library() function. You only need to install a package once, but you will load it each time you start a new r session. To learn more about dplyr and tidyr after the workshop, you may want to check out this handy data transformation with dplyr cheatsheet and this one about tidyr.

#install tidyverse if you haven't yet
#install.packages("tidyverse")

#load tidyverse
library(tidyverse)
