Make sure R is installed!

...

Although our focus will be on R, we will cover the interaction between R and Python. In order to install Python on your computer, you can follow one of Iain's installation guide: Modelling with Python Workshop - Installation Guide for OSX, Modelling with Python Workshop - Installation Guide for Linux, Modelling with Python Workshop - Installation Guide for Windows . You only need to follow the sections "Install Python" and "Install setuptools". For this workshop, we will keep the required Python knowledge to a minimum. However, since Python will be used extensively in other workshops, it's a good idea to go over some Resources for Learning Python.
