This video is now five years old, and some of the web sites have changed.

It introduces a cloud-based platform where you can run RStudio in your Web browser. In the class, we recommend you install RStudio onto a personal computer, like a laptap, and run it there. This is because your computer is likely more powerful than the cloud-based version, which is likely a virtual machine running on less ample resources.

But if you are traveling and don't feel like carrying a computer around everywhere, and can run a full-featured Web browser, RStudio cloud is a nice option.

Watch the video to learn:

How to log into RStudio cloud (now called Posit cloud)
Enter R commands in the console
Console shortcuts for R commands
How to save and download your R history file

You can also install RStudio and R on your local machine. Visit the RStudio Web site for information on how to do that.
