I am trying to install the R package “mxnet”. However, this package does not seem to be available on CRAN. I found similar posts on stackoveflow where similar problems were encountered:
How to install “mxnet” package in R 4.0.2
I tried to install this package three different ways, but both of them failed:
#First Way:
