Brief Overview

Other Projects

littler lets R be used in commad-line scripting, pipes and more.

binb, linl, pinp, and tint are all using Markdown to produce pdf (nice than Beamer) slides, letters, (PNAS-alike) papers or (Tufte) handouts (pdf and html.

Rblpapi connects R to Bloomberg API (provided you have Bloomberg).

RQuantLib is another relatively large project connecting R to QuantLib.

BH provides Boost C++ headers for use by R; AsioHeaders does the same for Asio.

digest provides hash sums of R objects.

inline makes it easy to inline C, C++, or Fortran code alongside R.

RPushbullet interfaces the PushBullet notification service.

RApiSerialize provides the C-level API for R object serialization; RApiDatetime does the same for some date/time functions.

pkgKitten makes creating and writing R packages a breeze.

drat supports lightweight package repositories.

rfoaas interfaces the excellent FOAAS service.

random provides true (hardware) RNG draws.

rmsfact and gaussfacts offer some (lighthearted) quotes in the fortune() tradition.

RDieHarder tests RNGs.

RPostgreSQL connects R to Postgres (now maintained by Tomoaki Nishiyama).

spdl provides a consistent R and C++ wrapper for logging with spdlog.

td accesses twelvedata APIs over REST.

crc32c provides a hardware-accelerated crc32c implementation with a software fallback.

tinythemes provides a lightweight repackaging of ggplot2 themes.

ciiw offers a quick and concise view of the ‘incoming’ directory at CRAN.

Older projects include the Perl-based BeanCounter (and SMTM) as well as Finance::YahooQuote.
