Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘C50’ in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]): there is no package called ‘libcoin’ >

install.packages("C50", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org") Installing package into ‘C:/Users/balaj/OneDrive/Documents/R/win-library/3.4’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) Package which is only available in source form, and may need compilation of C/C++/Fortran: ‘C50’ These will not be installed

So you got a message that you needed the tools for compiling packages from source. Do you have those tools? If not, have you looked for them? If you have them, then you should provide details. - IRTFM

Also, you may need package libcoin first? - Roman Luštrik
I had the same issue and it worked - WAF

As suggested in a comment, this did the trick for me:

install.packages('libcoin', dependencies = T)
install.packages('C50', dependencies = T)
