  • am following instructions from
    https://irkernel.github.io/installation/ so i can use R with jupyter
    notebook.


  • i already have jupyter and R installed, and they work fine.


  • so when it comes to installing the packages with:


install.packages(c('repr', 'IRdisplay', 'evaluate', 'crayon', 'pbdZMQ', 'devtools', 'uuid', 'digest'))



i get this message:




In R CMD INSTALL
* installing source package 'repr' ...
** package 'repr' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
Error in .read_description(dfile) :

ERROR: installing package DESCRIPTION failed for package 'repr'
* removing 'C:/Program Files/R/R-3.5.1/library/repr'



The downloaded source packages are in
