R语言install.packages函数帮助文档中英对照

第一部分：获取文档

已知函数名时，可以在Rstudio中输入help(“函数名”)获取该函数的帮助文档。
这里获取install.packages函数文档的代码：

help("install.packages")

从图中可以看到install.packages函数存在于{utils}工具包中。
另一种方法，已知包名utils时，可以通过包名utils查找到函数。获取帮助文档：help.start()

打开帮助文档页面，选择packages：

选择utils的install.packages函数：

第二部分：文档剖析

install.packages {utils}
函数名 {包名}
Description：描述
Download and install packages from CRAN-like repositories or from local files.
从类似CRAN的存储库或本地文件下载并安装软件包。
Usage：用法

install.packages(pkgs, lib, repos = getOption("repos"),
                 contriburl = contrib.url(repos, type),
                 method, available = NULL, destdir = NULL,
                 dependencies = NA, type = getOption("pkgType"),
                 configure.args = getOption("configure.args"),
                 configure.vars = getOption("configure.vars"),
                 clean = FALSE, Ncpus = getOption("Ncpus", 1L),
                 verbose = getOption("verbose"),
                 libs_only = FALSE, INSTALL_opts, quiet = FALSE,
                 keep_outputs = FALSE, ...)

Arguments：参数

参数	描述
pkgs	character vector of the names of packages whose current versions should be downloaded from the repositories.If repos = NULL, a character vector of file paths of ‘.zip’ files containing binary builds of packages. (http:// and file:// URLs are also accepted and the files will be downloaded and installed from local copies.) Source directories or file paths or URLs of archives may be specified with type = “source”, but some packages need suitable tools installed (see the ‘Details’ section).If this is missing or a zero-length character vector, a listbox of available packages is presented where possible in an interactive R session.
中文	字符向量，指向需要下载的包在存储库中当前版本对应的包名。如果repos参数值为空，则该字符向量对应着一个文件：默认存储库路径下已经存在的一个二进制zip文件（如果是从本地副本文件下载并安装，用“http://”或者“file：//URL”Z作为字符向量参数也是被接受的）源目录或文件路径或URL需要使用type =“source”来特别指定，但某些软件包需要安装适配的工具（请参阅“详细信息”部分）。如果没有输入该参数或参数字符长度为0，在交互式R会话中尽可能的提供了可用软件包的列表。
lib	character vector giving the library directories where to install the packages. Recycled as needed. If missing, defaults to the first element of .libPaths().
中文	字符向量，指向软件包的安装位置的库目录。根据需要回收。如果缺失，则默认为.libPaths（）的第一个元素
repos	character vector, the base URL(s) of the repositories to use, e.g., the URL of a CRAN mirror such as “h
