But after installation of "shiny package" when trying this script

What did it say when you ran install.packages(shiny)? I am guessing the shiny installation was unsuccessful.

As your output indicates, you need to install Rtools first. Take peek here if you need to figure out how to to install it on a Windows machine. Try installing shiny after that, and it should probably work assuming no other prerequisites are unsatisfied.
