Hi everyone, I have built an R package and for the sake of speed I have decided to rewrite some part of the code in C++. In my original R code I use the pnorm, qnorm, rnorm, pgamma, dgamma, rgamma, rbeta and runif function. First I was thinking in going with the boost libraries, but I noticed the functions described above are available within the R.h header file (or is it Rmath.h?).
So my question is the following. Would my code be faster if I install the appropriate boost libraries (distributions) or if I stick with R.h's functions? Thanks! ****************************************************************************************************************************** IAN SCHILLER, M.Sc.
