Overview

About

Maintained by Josef MalýFirst published 2026-08-041 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Implements a bytecode compiler for 'R' in 'C', targeting functional parity with the base 'compiler' package, while focusing on better performance. The architecture mostly mirrors the original 'GNU-R' compiler as described in https://homepage.cs.uiowa.edu/~luke/R/compiler/compiler.pdf.
