Hi,
I am in the situation where I could get my code run correctly under GNU C, but it produced different (strange) results
while running in R . ( I use .C to call the function). May I get some general advice on how could I do step by step debug
of source code in R ?
Thanks
How to debug C code running in R

You haven't told us your OS (as asked for in the posting guide). But Writing R Extensions section 4.4 rw-FAQ Q8.4 both appear to give the instructions you are asking for.

There's a chapter on debugging in Writing R Extensions, with specific advice for compiled code. I also put together a web page of mostly Windows-specific advice, at http://www.stats.uwo.ca/faculty/murdoch/software/debuggingR Duncan Murdoch
