> fortunes::fortune(92) ## ## If you don't go with R now, you will someday. ## -- David Kane (on whether to use R or S-PLUS) ## R-SIG-Finance (November 2004) However, when I tried it on my machine, I get rajulocal@hogwarts:~/work/r_programming$ R -q > fortunes::fortune(92) Error in loadNamespace(name) : there is no package called ‘fortunes’ What package(s) do I need to install to get fortune in R? I tried doing a "apt-cache search fortune R" but none of the hits look promising. I am using Debian Jessie. rajulocal@hogwarts:~/work/r_programming$ dpkg -l \*fortune\* r-base | grep ^ii ii fortune-mod 1:1.99.1-7 amd64 provides fortune cookies on demand ii fortunes-min 1:1.99.1-7 all Data files containing selected fortune cookies ii r-base 3.1.1-1 all GNU R statistical computation and graphics system thanks -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi http://malayamaarutham.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Debian mailing list [email protected] https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-debian
