Description

Usage

julia_do.call(
  func_name,
  arg_list,
  need_return = c("R", "Julia", "None"),
  show_value = FALSE

julia_call(
  func_name,
  ...,
  need_return = c("R", "Julia", "None"),
  show_value = FALSE

Arguments

func_name

the name of julia function you want to call. If you add "." after 'func_name', the julia function call will be broadcasted.

arg_list

the list of the arguments you want to pass to the julia function.

need_return

whether you want julia to return value as an R object, a wrapper for julia object or no return. The value of need_return could be TRUE (equal to option "R") or FALSE (equal to option "None"), or one of the options "R", "Julia" and "None".

...

the arguments you want to pass to the julia function.

Details

Note that named arguments will be discarded if the call uses dot notation, for example, "sqrt.".

Examples

if (identical(Sys.getenv("AUTO_JULIA_INSTALL"), "true")) { ## julia_setup is quite time consuming
  ## doing initialization and automatic installation of Julia if necessary
  julia_setup(installJulia = TRUE)
  julia_do.call("sqrt", list(2))
  julia_call("sqrt", 2)
  julia_call("sqrt.", 1:10)
}
