    Title

    OS

    R version

    Test using

    Linux

    >= 3.6.3

    $ R -e "version" | grep "version.string"

    Windows

    >= 4.0.1

    >>> R -e "version" | findstr "version.string"

2. robusta requires that several R packages will be installed (see robusta.misc.pyrio.required_r_libraries). To avoid changes to your existing R installation, it is recommended to use different environments, e.g., using conda. You could use the following or skip to the next step.

1conda create --name rst pip -y & activate rst
2conda install -c conda-forge r-base=4 -y
3pip install robusta-stats

  1. pip install robusta-stats.

4. Enter a python session and run import robusta as rst. On the first time that you will import robusta many libraries and their dependencies will be installed (more if you begin with an empty R environment). On windows this is expected to take 4-5 minutes, on Linux R libraries are build from source, so installation takes about 20-30 minutes.
