R help - Jun 2005 - Porting Matlab code to R

Hello,

 

I'm looking at porting code written for Matlab to R. 

However, I don't have sufficient knowledge of Matlab to know whether
it's feasible or appropriate.

If there is anyone who has any experience in this and could provide some
advice, I'd be grateful.

 

TIA, Peter

I guess this depends on what the Matlab code is for and what it does, 
whether it uses any commercial toolboxes etc.

I recently ported some Matlab code fairly easily, with the exception of 
the parts of the Matlab code requiring a toolbox I didn't have access to.

You might find Rob Hankin's R and Octave contributed document, which 
lists many Octave (Matlab) functions and their R equivalents:

http://cran.r-project.org/doc/contrib/R-and-octave-2.txt

I found this very helpful.
