Installation

StratoBayes requires R version 4.2.x – 4.5.x. We recommend using R through the RStudio IDE.

Binaries are available for Windows and macOS.

Step-by-step guide

1. Install R and RStudio:
   • Download and install R, ensuring you select the correct installer for your operating system (Windows, macOS Intel, or macOS Apple Silicon).
   • Download and install RStudio corresponding to your operating system.

If you are unsure which version of Mac you are using, click the apple logo in the top left corner and select “About This Mac”. Check the processor type. “Apple M1”, “M2”, or later require R for Apple silicon; Intel processors (i5, i7, i9, etc.) require R “For older Intel Macs”.

2. Confirm R version in RStudio:

   • Open RStudio.

   • Select your R version via:

     Tools → Global Options → General → R version

   • If not already selected, chose R version 4.5.x (or 4.4.x, 4.3.x or 4.2.x) and restart RStudio to apply the change.
