Hello,
I am trying to use a C++ library I have to read some data into R.
I've gone over the "Writing R Extensions" page and some of the
archives, but am left somewhat confused (and I'm still very new to R!).
What I want to do is fairly simple. Given some parameters, I'd like
to read a string of numbers from a proprietary binary file into an
array. I have a C++ library that will read anything I need from this
file.
What is the best way to do this? Can someone give me any pointers to
sample code?
One possibility I've considered is writing a small unix command line
program that, given the parameters, will return the string of
numbers. Is there a way to "capture" this from R into an array?
Cheers,
Demitri
