So I am looking at the R Installation and Administration section,
specifically section 3 for windows. . I have some inquiries.
1. Where do I run "make check"?
2. I got this when I was running the make check:
C:\Users\edmon\Documents\R\RFIN> R CMD make check
make: *** No rule to make target 'check'. Stop.
I'm guessing I'm running it incorrectly.
3. I get this back when I run the "tools::testInstalledPackages(scope =
"base")" on my RGUI.
Error: testing 'utils' failed
Where may I find the error log for this?
Best regards,
