What is CRAN?
CRAN, the Comprehensive R Archive Network, is R's official package repository, hosting tens of thousands of vetted packages. Packages published on CRAN go through basic automated checks before release, giving them a baseline level of reliability. It's the default source install.packages() pulls from, and most tutorials assume packages come from here unless stated otherwise.
