Re: [R] "prob" package alternative
That worked. Thank you, especially for that last one!
So, for others who might encounter this same situation:
1. Install RTools from here:
https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/Rtools34.exe
Trying to install Rtools from inside RStudio will result in an "it's not
available for 3.4.2" message.
2. Install the following dependencies: timeDate, timeSeries, fBasics,
fOptions
3. Download fAsianOptions from here:
https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/fAsianOptions/fAsianOptions_3010.79.tar.gz
and prob from here:
https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/prob/prob_1.0-0.tar.gz
4. Unzip each into its own directory.
5. Use this to install each, as appropriate:
install.packages("~/Downloads/fAsianOptions",
dependencies=TRUE, repos=NULL, type = "source")

Re: [R] "prob" package alternative
Rtools is not available for the current version of R.
What I'm looking for is an alternative package or how others have managed
to create workarounds.

Re: [R] "prob" package alternative
Yes, that is exactly what I was doing two days ago.
Warning in install.packages :
installation of package ‘fAsianOptions_3010.79.tar.gz’ had non-zero exit
status
Which is what a reading of the explanation for why "prob" was retired leads
one to expect. Do you have some other suggestion about how to get it to
work? I notice you're not using Windows which might have a relationship to
why it is working for you.
Otherwise, do you know of some other package that could be used instead of
prob?

Re: [R] "prob" package alternative
Yes. That's the version I've been discussing that has non-zero exit status.
That situation is why CRAN retired the prob package. It's possible you
installed that library earlier in development and it's been "carried"
along. It no longer installs, now.
The problems with all of this seem to have started this month according to
the conversations. However, no one has mentioned any solutions or
workarounds except the one mentioned in passing (2.9).
Is there some other package that does something similar to prob that can be
used instead?

Re: [R] "prob" package alternative
The issue is fAsianOptions. Is there a version that works with the latest
version of R? If not, which version of it works with which version of R and
where can it be found? I tried several at the archive already.
Alternatively, is there another package that behaves similarly to prob?

[R] "prob" package alternative
The prob package has been archived because it depends upon some other packages which have issues. However, such projects as Introduction to Probability and Statistics in R depend upon it for learning. There are a few other resources that also use it. Does anyone know of any workarounds? Someone at stack exchange mentioned using R 2.9. However, that broke my RStudio (WSOD) and the dependent packages still wouldn't install, anyway. Suggestions? Thanks!
