                        "rpart.plot", "rattle", "vip", "AmesHousing", 
                        "kknn", "rpart", "ranger", "partykit"))

On the day of the class, we’ll provide you with an RStudio Server Pro
login that contains all of the course materials. We will use the
software listed above only as an important backup should there be
problems with the classroom server connection.
