OA,
Thanks for the response. I downloaded the file RQuantLib_0.4.4.tar.gz
into a directory c:\r.zip on my Windows machine. I then ran the
following command and I received the following output:
> install.packages("RQuantLib", lib="/r.zip/")
Warning message:
package ?RQuantLib? is not available (for R version 3.4.3)
I did not unpack the .gz file. Should I have?
Please comment.

Based upon comments I received on the R-Help list, I ran the following
commands and got the following output:
> drat::addRepo("ghrr")
> install.packages("RQuantLib", type="binary")

This time, I used the mirror in Europe rather than a mirror in the

thank everybody for their help.
