What is "The R Interpreter" setting in IntelliJ IDEA?

Question

My OS is Windows 7. I have installed "IntelliJ IDEA 2016.2.5", and "R x64 3.1.2".

I'm going to do some R language coding in IntelliJ IDEA. So I installed the plugin "IntelliJ plugin for the R language". Then I'm blocked by its setting, at File->Settings->Other Settings->The R Interpreter.

I have no idea of what is "R Interpreter". Which file is it?

Answer 1

Sorry I'm a so newbie of IntelliJ IDEA. And I got the answer. The R Interpreter means the x64/R.exe file in my R installation folder. But still don't know how to set the "Sources" in that same page.

Answer 2

Goto Preferences->Languages->R
or File->Settings->Languages->R Language

Then browse the location where you have installed R and after going to that location goto "bin" folder and then choose R.exe file.
Now after browsing "........./R/R-<version>/bin/R.exe" by following the above instructions click on Apply and then Ok.
That's it. You are done then.
Hope this was helpful.
