R语言安装Systematic Investor Toolbox (SIT)包

教材要求安装SIT，也就是“系统投资者工具箱”Systematic Investor Toolbox (SIT) 。

我很自然的使用CRAN安装SIT

> install.packages("SIT")
Warning in install.packages :
  package ‘SIT’ is not available (for R version 3.6.2)
> install.packages('curl', repos = 'http://cran.r-project.org')
Error in install.packages : Updating loaded packages

伤心了居然不能自动安装。

我看了一下官网的安装说明。似乎不难。但是，我有一个感觉只要是不能CRAN安装的包，总会遇到一些问题，比如外网问题。很烦人。

安装 curl和devtools

> install.packages("curl", repos = "http://cran.r-project.org")
