helloworld.r

#!/usr/bin/Rscript
ds1 = data.frame(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9)
install.packages("caTools", dependencies=TRUE)
str(ds1)

output :

-bash-4.1$ ./helloworld.r
Installing package into ‘/usr/lib64/R/library’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified)


 Warning in install.packages("caTools", dependencies = TRUE) :

'*"/usr/lib64/R/library"' is not writable*' - Well, there is your problem. – GolezTrol Oct 18 '17 at 06:35
`sudo ./helloworld.r`? – Ken Y-N Oct 18 '17 at 06:37
