I am wishing to write my own random distribution simulation function using C programmin language(for speed) via R. I am familiar with R programming but somewhat new to C programming. I was trying to understand "Writing R extensions" -guide and its part 6.16, but I found it hard to understand(http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-exts.html#Standalone-Mathlib). I also tried to get familiar with the example codes, but it didn't make me any wiser.
The biggest problem seems to be how to get(what code to write in C) random uniform numbers using Rmath. That seems to be too complicated to me at the moment. So if someone of you could give a small example and it would definitely help me a lot. All I wish to do first is to finally write(and understand) my own function similar to what you run in R Command line via command "runif". And all this I am hoping to do without recompiling my whole R. Instead of that I think that it is possible to use dyn.load("code.so") in R. (Yes, I use linux) -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/Writing-own-simulation-function-in-C-tp1580190p1580190.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
