Hello I'm trying to use the Magick package for animations - it has

That's not an R version number. It looks like an RStudio version
number, which is irrelevant here: RStudio is just an editor and front end.
Am I
being naive in assuming that all later versions of R subsume the features
of earlier ones or is it that some packages stop being useable with later
updates?
That's up to the package maintainer. However, the magick package (note
the lowercase name) works in current R versions.
In any event I have some code for an animation sequence which I have
downloaded from the site -Lesson 39 – Discrete distributions in R: Part I –
dataanalysisclassroom <https://www.dataanalysisclassroom.com/lesson39/>
the code runs without an error message but it doesn't give the animation
sequence you see on the website
Any help suggestions appreciated Nick Wray

The line above should be separated to
# Create png files for Binomial distribution
png(file="binomial%02d.png", width=600, height=300)
When I make that correction, the example works for me.
