In R, install the required packages for Braincharts:

install.packages(c('gamlss', 'tidyverse'))

Then install the dependencies for the example scripts on the github repository:

install.packages(c('ggplot2', 'pracma'))

The previous two commands only need to be executed once.

For each R session, execute the following to import the software:
