Thanks for the info. Did not mean to sound harsh at all, R is an absolute pleasure to install and use---didn't think that "going through" is associated primarily with a negative emotion. Did a quick check on "going through" in poetry to see nuances of the phrase---you are right, except "going through life". Thanks for the reply.

How do I update to a new version of R on Linux without going
