B. Code written in the console is automatically saved in the script file.
C. The console provides immediate feedback on code execution.
D. Code written in the file editor cannot be executed in RStudio.

Answer :

Final answer:

In RStudio, code can be written and executed directly in the file editor, and the console provides immediate feedback once the code is executed. So the correct option is a) Code written in the file editor can be executed directly from the editor.

Explanation:

In RStudio, code written in the file editor can indeed be executed directly from the editor and the console provides immediate feedback on code execution. Specifically, after writing code in the file editor, you can execute it by using the Run button or by pressing CTRL+ENTER, which sends the code to the console where it is executed. Moreover, any commands entered directly into the console are executed immediately, allowing for immediate feedback. However, the code written in the console is not automatically saved to the script file; this must be done manually by the user. Lastly, it is not true that code written in the file editor cannot be executed in RStudio; indeed, the editor is designed for writing and executing code.
