R help - Nov 2007 - translating R code to C code

I would like to try to implement a big series of nested loops in a C
code and then call it from R; however I'm not familiar with C
programming. Does anyone know about some sort of reference I can use
that help me to translate my code to C? (I'm thinking on something
like to Octave to R reference posted in CRAN)
thanks

No. R and C are not comparable, so there is not "reference". R, Octave
and
Matlab have more similarities. Best is to ask someone who knows C, and explain
him/her what has to be done; you have little chance to get a C program to work
without some experience.
