FastR is an implementation of the R Language. At the moment, FastR is can run the R implementation of the Language Shootout Benchmarks.

1. download the latest code: wget https://github.com/allr/fastr/archive/master.zip
2. unzip it: unzip master.zip
3. build: cd fastr-master ; ant
4. run the console: ./r.sh
5. run the binarytrees benchmark for size 5: ./r.sh --args 5 -f test/r/shootout/binarytrees/binarytrees.r

FastR requires Java. By default FastR uses Java implementations of LAPACK and BLAS. Some of the mandelbrot shootout benchmarks will only run on Unix, because they spawn the cat process.

ant tests

The outputs will appear in junit directory.

The code contains settings and project configuration for Eclipse Juno.
