things i googled this week

How would we learn R if not for google? Here are some things I googled this week (and mostly not for the first time).

1. how to install a package from github. 95% of the time, packages I want are on CRAN and I can just use the install.packages function to install them. install.packages("nameofthepackage") Occasionally though, I see something cool and new on Twitter and need to install from github.
