|The strength and depth of R comes from the various functions and other objects which are provided for your use. These are actually provided by a variety of separate '''packages'''. For example, Figure 1.1 is based on data from the "datasets" package. To use the contents of a package, it must be made available to R, then loaded into your R session. 

Some packages should always be available within R, and a number of these are automatically loaded at the start of an R session. These include the "base" package (which is where the <code>max()</code> and <code>sqrt()</code> functions are defined), the "utils" package (which is where <code>RSiteSearch()</code> and <code>citation()</code> are defined), the "graphics" package (which allows plots to be generated), and the "stats" package (which provides a broad range of statistical functionality). In total, the default packages allow you to do a considerable  amount of statistics.

However, one of the strengths of R is the variety of additional packages that are available. Packages are, for example, which allow you to analyse genetic data, to interface to geographical information systems, for economic analysis, and so forth. To make a package available to R, you need to download it and install it somewhere on your system. There is a central place (called "CRAN") from where you can download most additional packages. Once you have installed a package, you can load it into R at any time by using the <code>library()</code> function.

|library("datasets")  #Load the already installed "datasets" package
cars                #Having loaded "datasets", the "cars" object (containing a set of data) is now available
library("vioplot")    #Try loading the "vioplot" package: will probably fail as it is not installed by default
install.packages("vioplot") #This is one way of installing the package. There are other ways too.
library("vioplot")    #This should now work
example("vioplot")    #produces some pretty graphics. Don't worry about what they mean for the time being
|> ## N.B. the "datasets" package is installed by default and provides useful example data
> library(datasets)  #Load the datasets package (actually, it has probably been loaded already)
> cars               #Display one of the datasets: see ?car for more information

|Note that some packages require other packages to be installed in order to work properly (one package is said to "depend" on another). For example, "vioplot" requires the "sm" package. If these dependent packages are not installed, then you will not be able to load the original package within R. Installing a package in the manner above, by calling <code>install.packages()</code>, should also install dependencies<ref>Actually, the details are slightly more complex, depending on whether there is a default location to install the packages, see <code>?install.packages</code></ref>.

There are several other ways of installing packages. If you start R by typing "R" on a unix command-line, then you can install packages by running "R CMD INSTALL packagename" from the command-line instead (see <code>?INSTALL</code>). If you are running R using a graphical user interface (e.g. under Macintosh or Windows), then you can often install packages by using on-screen menus. Note that these methods may not install other, dependent packages.

{{message box|heading=You only need to read the following if you are are having problems installing packages.|message=If a package is not installed already, and you encounter problems when trying to install it (e.g. when calling <code>install.packages("vioplot")</code>), this may be for one of the following reasons:
* R needs to know where to get the package. This normally involves downloading the package from the internet, in particular, from the CRAN archive, or one of its mirrors. You may need to call <code>chooseCRANmirror()</code> to set this.
* You need to be able to access the selected CRAN mirror (so you need to be connected to the internet!). Note, however, that it ''is'' possible to install a local copy of a package, see the example in ?install.packages
* You need to be able to install the package somewhere where R can find it. Normally, packages are installed to a central location on your computer, but this may require administrator access. There are several ways of telling R where to install packages and where to find them: these are not covered here, but are detailed in the R FAQs.}} }}
