Arguments

Value

is_windows returns TRUE if the OS on the current platform is Microsoft windows-based. is_unix returns TRUE if the OS is Unix based (pretty much anything that isn't Windows, including OS X). is_mac, is_linux, is_bsd, is_solaris return TRUE if the OS is Apple OS X, Linux, FreeBSD/NetBSD, or Solaris respectively. is_64_bit_os returns TRUE when the operating system is 64-bit. The assert_* functions return nothing but throw an error if the corresponding is_* functions return FALSE.

References

With the exception of is_windows and is_unix that use .Platform$OS.type, the OS is determined from Sys.info()[["sysname"]], which (not on Windows) is calculated via the OS uname program. GNU has more information on the return value: https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Platform-Type.html and Wikipedia has a nice list of possible values: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uname#Examples The names for different versions of Windows are decribed in: http://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/src/library/utils/src/windows/util.c
