How to use the Apollo package on old version of R

Post by FuZheng »

Dear experts,
Hi! Recently I have to use a computer offline in special case. The R version on it is 3.1.0 (published in year 2014). I wonder can I install the Apollo package on it and use it successfully? If not, what should I do to modify the package for old version R?

Thank you!

Hi

I believe the latest version of Apollo that was compatible with R 3.1.0 would be version 0.0.8. So you could install that, but it had very basic functionality compared to the recent version
