Greetings to everyone and thank you for your readiness to help. I have problems using the pipe command (|>). Once I have it in any script on my system, it won't. The error message will say: unexpected '>' I loaded the two packages below to see if it would handle it. But the problem remains. library(magrittr) library(dplyr) I searched to see if there was a way to install the command. But I was not successful. Please tell me what to do to be able to use the pipe command on my system. I would be grateful for any help. Thank you. Sincerely yours Ogbos [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
My guess would be that you're using an older version of R. The pipe was added in R 4.1. It cannot be used in earlier versions as the syntax is invalid. You could use the dplyr pipe if you want further back compatibility.

You probably have to update your R version. The native pipe |> wasn't introduced until R version 4.4. R.version.string (among others) will tell you what version you have. If you don't want to do that, install and load the 'magrittr' package and change |> to %>% everywhere.
