The most current version will be available from the devel version link, and also from this github page. To install from Bioconductor, see the links above. epistasisGA remains available through github. The main functions of the package rely on C++ code via the Rcpp and RcppArmadillo packages. These packages require a suitable compiler for installation. The requirements for different operating systems are described in section 1.3 of the Rcpp package FAQs: <https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/Rcpp/vignettes/Rcpp-FAQ.pdf>. Further details for macOS users can be found in the ‘R Administration’ manual, Appendix C.3: <https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-admin.html#macOS>. Additionally, to build the package vignette, Pandoc is required. To check whether you have pandoc installed, see here: <https://rmarkdown.rstudio.com/docs/reference/pandoc_available.html>. After ensuring these prerequisites are installed, epistasisGA can be installed using the `devtools` package with the following commands: ``` r library(devtools) devtools::install_github("mnodzenski/epistasisGA", build_vignettes = TRUE, dependencies = TRUE) ``` ## Vignette Please consult the package vignette for example usages of the functions in epistasisGA. The vignette can be accessed by entering the following command and clicking on the resulting HTML links: ``` r browseVignettes("epistasisGA") ```
