Before the Vacation School week: Drop-in clinics for R setup problems

David Selby will be available in Zeeman A0.02 at the following times, to help Vacation School participants resolve any problems they may have had in setting up R, Rstudio and the recommended packages:

• Wednesday 6 September, 1100-1200
• Thursday 7 September, 1400-1500

Please come to a clinic session if you have had any difficulty with setting these things up on your own laptop. If you cannot come to the clinic on either of these days, then please do post a question to the Vacation School Forum and hopefully someone there will be able to help.
