Blegging for Data
I’m in the middle of a new project that involves analyzing the packages that are currently on CRAN. As part of my work, I could really benefit from information about which packages are installed on people’s computers. If you’re willing to part with a bit of your time and privacy, I’d very much appreciate you running the following script in R,
package.info <- installed.packages()[,c(1,3)]
write.csv(
package.info,
file = 'my_installed_packages.csv',
row.names = FALSE
)
and sending me the output file my_installed_packages.csv
by e-mail to jmw@johnmyleswhite.com.
