Error in library(tidyr) : there is no package called ‘tidyr’

Question

I am getting Error in library(tidyr) : there is no package called ‘tidyr’ error while installing the tidyr package.

I'm using version.string R version 3.2.3 version.

Answer 1

Looks to me like you are trying to load it, not install it. To install you first run install.packages("tidyr"), then run library(tidyr).

Also, your R version is pretty old. Not sure it will work that far back. You might consider upgrading if possible.
