There are again a number of different options for how to get the distribution set up on your device. There are ports of Debian available for systems running an ARM architechture, on which Android devices commonly run. Installing Debianĭebian is a popular Linux-based operating system that is known for it’s reliability, and is commonly used on servers and personal computers. For at least the installation and compilation steps, I’d recommend having ready access to a power source and to set your device to a performance mode (turning power-save features off) if applicable. In my case, I used a Moto X (2013) developer edition, flashed with a pre-rooted nightly image of CyanogenMod 13. I’d recommend having at least 4Gb of space available, whether it be on the device’s internal storage or if available (SD expansion slot), expandable storage. Thankfully there are a number of resources on the internet to guide you through the process 1 2 3 4 5. It can be a little bit of an involved process to get set up, and would vary depending on what device you’re using as well as if you have access to a computer.

The process of getting this set up involves some tinkering with the software of your device, and can lead to loss of data or potentially rendering it unusable. In this post, I’ll go through the process of compiling the web-accessible server version of RStudio locally onto an Android mobile phone, to use on the Run! But what of mobile devices? After all, I sometimes don’t have my computer with me, such as when I’m at conferences or seminars, and internet access is not guaranteed at all times. There is even a version allowing you to run it from a server.

Obtaining RStudio is relatively painless the software is open source and there are binaries available for numerous systems (Windows, Mac, Linux). One commonly used platform is RStudio, featuring a number of features including syntax highlighting and code completion. There is a bit of a learning curve to it, but with plenty of resources available on the internet and with an appropriate development platform/editor, refining your analysis with it is relatively unproblematic. R is a popular statistical computing environment based around a readily interpretable language, with the additional benefit of being free.
