On this page, you can free download the latest version of Google Chrome for Mac OS X 10.11 to later versions.I use R both inside and a outside of work quite a bit. It is a cross-platform browser available for Mac, Windows, Linux, Android, etc. Chrome for macOS is currently the most popular web browser for PC which provides a very smooth and secure browsing experience.

Open the main settings menu by clicking on the time in the bottom right then clicking the cog wheel icon.Have a look on the menu on the right hand side for ‘Linux (Beta)’If you don’t have that option you’re out of luck. Enabling Linux on Chrome OSFirstly, we need to establish if you have a Chromebook capable of running Linux. It’s all just a description of a beta feature of Chrome OS and some Linux commands, but the results are still pretty cool.So let’s get started. No hacking or jail-breaking type stuff. ![]() paste the repo config line with ‘ctrl+shift+v’ press ‘o’ to add a new line underneath and to switch to insert mode press ‘shift+g’ to go to the last line of the file Take your time and follow these steps: I’ve opted for the RStudio one here.)The ‘vi’ editor can be intimidating if you’re not familiar with how it works, but we just need to add a single line at the end of the file. Installing RDebian Linux has a version of R in its standard repositories, and has done since 1997 apparently! Let’s see which version is available at the moment: sudo apt search r-base | grep ^r-baseNothing wrong with R 3.3.3 but it’s a bit long in the tooth now and I’d prefer a newer version.Fortunately, CRAN has information about installing a newer version and the rest of this section just covers the important parts of that process.We’re going to configure an additional Debian package repository on our Linux system as that has a newer version of R available in it.Install gnupg2 and then use it to import the key for the repo: sudo apt install -y gnupg2Sudo apt-key adv -keyserver keys.gnupg.net -recv-key 'E19F5F87128899B192B1A2C2AD5F960A256A04AF'The repos are cryptographically ‘signed’ by the package publisher to prove their provenance, so this is an important part of maintaining the security of your system.Now add the repository to the system configuration: sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.listWe need to add this line to the end of the file: deb stretch-cran35(You can edit this line to reflect your preferred CRAN mirror if you’d like. Increase line thickness autocadIf you right click that icon you can choose to ‘pin’ the shortcut to the taskbar.As a little bonus, when you save files to your ‘home directory’ in RStudio Desktop they’ll appear in the new ‘Linux files’ option on the sidebar in the ‘Files" app. Installing RStudio Desktop IDEThe Debian version of the RStudio Desktop IDE has a few dependencies that we need to install: sudo apt install -y libgstreamer1.0 libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0 libxslt-devThen we can download the package from the RStudio website and install it: curl -o rstudio.deb Once that’s installed you should have an ‘RStudio’ option in your apps menu as seen in the image below.If you click on that RStudio will start and you can start experimenting! Remember though, most Chromebooks are fairly low spec devices so you probably won’t get stellar performance.When it’s running you’ll get a larger version of the icon on the taskbar at the bottom of the screen. Then finally we install R itself.Note: At the time of writing (), you’ll get R 3.5.1. Then you can try again.Now that we’ve added a source to the system that has a later version of R, we can go ahead and install it: sudo apt updateThis updates the internal package cache with the info from the new source we added, then upgrades all the packages that are currently installed that have an update available. ![]()
