Abstract
This article introduces `cpp11eigen`, a new R package that integrates the
powerful Eigen C++ library for linear algebra into the R programming
environment. This article provides a detailed comparison between Armadillo and
Eigen speed and syntax. The `cpp11eigen` package simplifies a part of the
process of using C++ within R by offering additional ease of integration for
those who require high-performance linear algebra operations in their R
workflows. This work aims to discuss the tradeoff between computational
efficiency and accessibility.
本文介绍了 "cpp11eigen",这是一个新的 R 软件包,它将强大的线性代数 Eigen C++ 库集成到了 R 编程环境中。本文详细比较了 Armadillo 和 Eigen 的速度和语法。cpp11eigen "软件包简化了在 R 中使用 C++ 的部分过程,为那些在 R 工作流程中需要高性能线性代数运算的人提供了额外的集成便利。这项工作旨在讨论计算效率和易用性之间的权衡。
