Goal: Detail the process of using R and RStudio via the OnDemand service.
What is RStudio
RStudio Desktop: Used by millions of people weekly, the RStudio integrated development environment (IDE) is a set of tools built to help you be more productive with R and Python.
Since this is a desktop GUI application, you will need to run this from ARCC’s OnDemand service, via an interactive desktop.
Start R and RStudio
Process:
Access OnDemand and start an interactive desktop.
Open up a terminal.
Load R.
Load RStudio
Call
rstudio
from the command line.
RStudio requires a version of R to be available, so a version of R must be loaded before trying to start RStudio.
