How to install the e1071 package in R 2.15.0

Question

I want to use the skewness() and kurtosis() functions from the e1071 package. I have tried downloading the e1071 package with

install.packages("e1071", dep = TRUE) 

but it still doesn't seem to work. So I am wondering if it is the wrong version I installed. I've tried searching the CRAN site but I can't seem to find the version for R 2.15.0.

So I was wondering if I was doing it wrong or could someone please give me the link to the e1071 package, version 2.15.0.

You could try this: go to the

https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/e1071/index.html

get the windows Finding the windows binary filebinaries for the library and put it in your library folder within the R installation. Then load the library within R

library(e1071) :)
