Dependencies: make sure you have:

• installed Anaconda Python v2.7;
• installed R;

Launch a command-line terminal window and navigate to the <path to the cloned Software folder>/R folder, then run the command:

Run the command jupyter kernelspec list to verify that the iR kernel is among those listed.
