It's more of a question for R-help, but: If you follow the URL https://cran.r-project.org/package=PairTrading , you'll find that the package has been archived. You can still follow the archive link, download the package and then install (on Windows) from the R-GUI by selecting "install from local files" in the packages menu. (Keep in mind that packages are archived for a reason, usually.) If you want to try Daniel's suggestion: That 'R' is not found tells you it's not in the search path. You can set it on Windows in the system/environment variable settings; just add 'C:/Program Files/R <....>/bin ' (or whereever R is installed on your system) to the path. kind regards Enrico > ________________________________ > From: Daniel Cegiełka <daniel.cegie...@gmail.com> > Sent: Monday, September 21, 2020 5:01 PM > To: Alec Schmidt <aschm...@stevens.edu> > Cc: r-sig-finance@r-project.org <r-sig-finance@r-project.org> > Subject: Re: [R-SIG-Finance] PairTrading package > > Hi Alec, > > $ R --version > R version 4.0.0 (2020-04-24) -- "Arbor Day" > Copyright (C) 2020 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing > Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin17.0 (64-bit) > > R is free software and comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY. > You are welcome to redistribute it under the terms of the > GNU General Public License versions 2 or 3. > For more information about these matters see > https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.gnu.org%2Flicenses%2F&data=02%7C01%7Caschmid1%40stevens.edu%7Ce85102d9ef0f4cea022e08d85e718b7e%7C8d1a69ec03b54345ae21dad112f5fb4f%7C0%7C0%7C637363189046435726&sdata=OfQqu78x4j3D6D1oHM4KrPcqTha0Y%2FMLVPUESTCQH4k%3D&reserved=0. > > $ git clone > https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fcran%2FPairTrading&data=02%7C01%7Caschmid1%40stevens.edu%7Ce85102d9ef0f4cea022e08d85e718b7e%7C8d1a69ec03b54345ae21dad112f5fb4f%7C0%7C0%7C637363189046440727&sdata=RqrpSGXxOiJgM5I05DV0fPmRFUmkBnYHD5kge1Id3AE%3D&reserved=0 > Cloning into 'PairTrading'... > remote: Enumerating objects: 39, done. > remote: Counting objects: 100% (39/39), done. > remote: Compressing objects: 100% (24/24), done. > remote: Total 39 (delta 11), reused 39 (delta 11), pack-reused 0 > Unpacking objects: 100% (39/39), done. > > $ ls > PairTrading > > $ R CMD INSTALL PairTrading/ > * installing to library > ‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/4.0/Resources/library’ > * installing *source* package ‘PairTrading’ ... > > (…) > > ** building package indices > ** testing if installed package can be loaded from temporary location > ** testing if installed package can be loaded from final location > ** testing if installed package keeps a record of temporary installation path > * DONE (PairTrading) > > > Best regards, > Daniel > > >> On 21 Sep 2020, at 22:38, Alec Schmidt <aschm...@stevens.edu> wrote: >> >> I used to have R version 3.6.0 and tried to install PairTrading but got a >> message that the package is not available for that version. >> Now I've updated R to 4.0.2. but still have the message: >> >> package �PairTrading� is not available (for R version 4.0.2) >> >> I wonder if anything can be done about it or there may be other packages >> with similar functionality. >> >> Thanks!
