# Introduction to **logr**



There are already several logging packages for R.  Why create another one? 

Because the other logging packages all have something in common: they were built

for *R package developers*.  

What is different about the **logr** package is

that it is built for *normal R users*: statisticians, analysts, researchers, 

students, teachers, business people, etc.

The **logr** package is for those people who just need a written record of their

program execution.  It is designed to be as simple as possible, yet still

produce a useful and complete log.  

There are only three steps to creating a **logr** log:

1. Open the log

2. Print to the log

3. Close the log

Now this a logging system that anyone can use!  

### Installation

The easiest way to install the **logr** package is to run the following 

command from your R console:

    install.packages("logr")

Then put the following line at the top of your script:

    library(logr)

    

For examples and usage 

information, please visit the **logr** documentation site 

[here](https://logr.r-sassy.org/articles/logr.html)
