Dear R users, I want to call C function from R. I follow the following instruction using the example of foo.c http://www.stat.umn.edu/~charlie/rc/ I save the foo.c in my current directory. Is that right? After I enter the command R CMD SHLIB foo.c, I get the following message Error: unexpected symbol in "R cmd" Any suggestion is appreciated. Chun

It looks as though you did that within R. The R CMD SHLIB command is a shell command, run outside of R. Duncan Murdoch
