RPy to be distributed via Python-Announce-List@Python.Org What is RPy? -------------------- RPy is a very simple, yet robust, Python (http://www.python.org) interface to the R environment for statistical data analysis and graphics (http://www.r-project.org). RPy can manages translation between python and R formats for all kinds of R objects and can execute arbitrary R functions (including the graphic functions). All errors from the R language are converted to proper Python exceptions. All module installed on the R system are available from Python. Consequently, RPy allows Python programmers to easily add advanced statistical functionality to Python programs. It allows R programmers the ability to use Python to control R computations and to interface them with other systems. Examples include RSOAP (http://rsoap.sf.net), RSessionDA (http://research.warnes.net/projects/rzope/rsessionda), and RStatServer (http://rstatserver.sf.net). These products, which make heavy use of RPy have been used in a production environments for two years. New features in 0.4.0 ------------------------------- o Now works with R 2.0.0 o R header files for R 1.8.0 through R 2.0.0 are now included with rpy. This should make it easier to build. o All reported bugs have been fixed. For more information visit the RPy home page at http://rpy.sf.net, or the RPy SourceForge project page at http://www.sf.net/projects/rpy. ______________________ Nitin Jain, PhD Non Clinical Statistics Pfizer, Inc.
