install.packages('haven')
library(haven)
hsb1 <- read_sas("C:\\Users\\...\\hsb1.sas7bdat")

however, it does not work, please see the message below:

Error in loadNamespace(name) : there is no package called ‘readr’

My question: how to fix that?
BTW, no SAS installed in my PC, does this reason cause the error?

Install the package `readr`. – Marco Sandri Jun 03 '17 at 14:15
Always install dependent packages, too, with `install.packages(..., dependencies = TRUE)`. – Jun 03 '17 at 14:21
`rxImport` from `RevoScaleR` can read both compressed and uncompressed SAS files. – akrun Jun 03 '17 at 14:35
works， thanks a lot! – jstmj2002 Jun 17 '17 at 17:17
