R_version_in_a_folder

The folder for which we wish to know the R
  version.

folder

Get the version of the R installed in a folder based on the
structure of the filename README.R-... (where ... is a
version number for R). This function helps detect the
version number of an R installation even if the name of the
folder is not standard. If multiple versions were
installed, overwriting each other, the most recent is
selected.

R is great for installing software.  Through the 'installr'
    package you can automate the updating of R (on Windows, using updateR())
    and install new software. Software installation is initiated through a
    gui (just run installr()), or through functions such as: install.Rtools(),
    install.pandoc(), install.git(), and many more. The updateR() command
    performs the following: finding the latest R version, downloading it,
    running the installer, deleting the installation file, copy and updating
    old packages to the new R installation.
