Learn R Programming

⚠️There's a newer version (1.1.4) of this package.Take me there.

rlang

Overview

The rlang package provides tools to work with core language features of R and the tidyverse:

Tidy evaluation.
Base types: vectors, expressions, and environments.
Call and context stacks.
The condition system.

Installation

rlang is not automatically installed with the tidyverse package, but you can install it with:

install.packages("rlang")
library("rlang")

Or install the development version from github with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("tidyverse/rlang", build_vignettes = TRUE)
