RStudio IDE

RStudio is an integrated development environment which allows us to interact with R more readily. RStudio is similar to the standard RGui, but it is considered more user-friendly. This IDE has various drop-down menus, Windows with multiple tabs, and so many customization processes. 

The first time when we open RStudio, we will see three Windows. The fourth Window will be hidden by default. We can open this hidden Window by clicking the File drop-down menu, then New File and then R Script.
