Loading tidyverse leads to error message there is no package called 'readr'

I'm still new to R and just installed R on a new MacBook Pro and received the following error message when loading tidy verse. Grateful for any help!

library(tidyverse)

Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘tidyverse’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]): there is no package called ‘readr’

Solution

  • We could install the dependencies as well

     install.packages('tidyverse', dependencies = TRUE)

    or install readr with dependencies

    install.packages('readr', dependencies = TRUE)
