This function is responsible for compiling a version of the R language.
rcompiler(x = NULL)
Returns a message informing you if the procedure occurred correctly. You will also be able to receive information about missing dependencies.
Version of R you want to compile. By default (x = NULL
) the latest stable version of the R
language will be compiled. For example, x = "4.5.0"
will compile and link R-4.5.0 as the major version on your system.
This function is responsible for compiling a version of the R language. The x
argument is the version of R that you want to compile.
For example, x = "4.5.1"
will compile and link the R-4.5.1 version as the major version on your system. By default (x = NULL
), the latest stable version of R will be compiled.
For example, to compile the latest stable version of the R language, do:
rcompiler()
Regardless of your GNU/Linux distribution and what version of R is in your repositories, you can have the latest stable version of the R language compiled into your computer's architecture.
You can use the rcompiler()
function to compile different versions of R. For example, running rcompiler(x = "3.6.3")
and rcompiler()
will install versions 3.6.3 and 4.0.0 on your GNU/Linux distribution,
respectively. If you are on version 4.0.0 of R and run the code rcompiler(x = "3.6.3")
again, the function will identify the existence of version 3.6.3 on the system and give you the option to use the binaries
that were built in a previous compilation. This avoids unnecessary compilations.
