Answer 1

You have a very old version of R. You should update to the current version if you want things to go smoothly.

If you can't do that, here's what you'll have to do:

• Install the version of Rtools suitable for R 3.5.x.
• Install the packages you want. Some of them won't work, because they will need later versions of R, but won't declare that. So when you find one that fails, try installing the previous version of that package. If that also fails, try an even earlier one. Etc. Your R version was current in 2018, so you may need to go that far back in time to find compatible packages.
• Once you finally have everything working, try to update your packages. Maybe some of them could be more recent versions, maybe not. Do them one at a time. Typically tidyverse needs about 90 of them, so this will take a while.

So I recommend that you update your R version.
