Hi, I'm trying to use the svm function in R, but I can't find the e1071 package. When I type library(e1071), I get the error message that the package doesn't exist. I've searched all over the CRAN website, but I can't find anything. Did it change names? Thanks for your help, Chelsea
Did you try installing it first? From R, install.packages("e1071", dep = TRUE) On 4/8/06, Chelsea Ellis <chelellis82 at hotmail.com> wrote:> Hi, > > I'm trying to use the svm function in R, but I can't find the e1071 package. > When I type library(e1071), I get the error message that the package > doesn't exist.

What platform are you doing all this? Are you behind a firewall? Which CRAN mirror site did you try? What message(s) did you get when you do install.packages("e1071")?

Go to CRAN, choose your server, and then on the left pane, you will see a link named "packages." The link will be http://[your server name]/src/contrib/PACKAGES.html. Chose that. On the right pane, which is not visually well differentiated from the rest of the page, scroll down. e1071 is there right at the beginning of the packages whose names begin with "e". Have fun, JD
