NAME

UCS::R::Expect - Expect-based implementation of R backend

SYNOPSIS

  use UCS::R::Expect;
  ## exports Start(), Stop() and Exec() functions into current namespace
  ## as well as LoadVector() and DumpVector()

DESCRIPTION

This module should not be used directly. Import UCS::R instead, which will automatically load an available backend (UCS::R::RSPerl, UCS::R::Statistics, or UCS::R::Expect) as determined during the installation process.

LIMITATIONS

This module starts an R process in the background and communicates with it interactively through the Expect module. This approach has several disadvantages:

Because of these limitations, it is highly recommended that you install and use the RSPerl interface (available from http://www.omegahat.org/) on Unix platforms. The UCS installation script will automatically determine the best available backend. See doc/install.txt for more information and installation tips.
