Conflict between R and Openfoam in Ubuntu

Question

I work on a computer with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, and there are OpenFoam libraries on this computer. I recently installed the R. software. I had no problems during the installation process of R. The problem I found was related to starting R. When I write R in the terminal, I get the following:

luke@glinux:~$ R

Why, when I want to work with R, does the terminal show the version of OpenFoam? What can I do to solve this problem?

Answer 1

You can find out which version of R the system knows (and which it will use by default) by running which -a Ror whereis R.

R OpenFoam, /usr/bin/R ( ) R: alias R=/usr/bin/R ( @XavierStuvw)
