Hi, The following message popped up when I tried to install package "tidyverse". I am wondering if the package is still available. Thank you. install.packages("tidyverse")Warning in install.packages :unable to access index for repository https://cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib:cannot open URL 'https://cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib/PACKAGES'WARNING: Rtools is required to build R packages but is not currently installed.

The ‘tidyverse’ package is still available, please try to update your R and Rstudio and install the package again, it worked for me. Thanks.

Hello, I downloaded the latest version R 4.0.0 and it could not install Tidyverse either with similar warning package ‘tidyverse’ is not available (for R version 4.0.0). Are we going to use this package extensively for the coming courses? Can I get away without installing it? ### install.packages("tidyverse")Warning in install.packages :unable to access index for repository https://cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib:cannot open URL 'https://cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib/PACKAGES'WARNING: Rtools is required to build R packages but is not currently installed.
