[Rd] What happened to Ross Ihaka's proposal for a Common Lisp based R successor?
Is it conceivable that Julia could be ported to use R syntax in a way that would allow the vastly larger numbers of R programmers to seamlessly switch? Or equivalently, could an iteration of R itself do this?

But you can easily fall back to R from within Julia; see http://juliastats.github.io/RCall.jl/latest/ On Aug 5, 2016 1:27 PM, "Hadley Wickham" <h.wickham at gmail.com> wrote:> No. > > Hadley > > On Fri, Aug 5, 2016 at 11:12 AM, Kenny Bell <kmbell56 at gmail.com> wrote: > > Is it conceivable that Julia could be ported to use R syntax in a way > that > > would allow the vastly larger numbers of R programmers to seamlessly > switch? > > Or equivalently, could an iteration of R itself do this? > > > > > > On Fri, Aug 5, 2016, 9:00 AM Hadley Wickham <h.wickham at gmail.com> wrote: > >> > >> When it was being actively worked on, it had the advantage of existing. > >> > >> Hadley > >> > >> On Fri, Aug 5, 2016 at 10:48 AM, Kenny Bell <kmbell56 at gmail.com> wrote: > >> > Why is the described system preferable to Julia? > >> > > >> > On Fri, Aug 5, 2016, 4:50 AM peter dalgaard <pdalgd at gmail.com> wrote: > >> > > >> >> > >> >> On 05 Aug 2016, at 06:41 , Andrew Judson <ajskim at gmail.com> wrote: > >> >> > >> >> > I read this paper > >> >> > <https://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~ihaka/downloads/Compstat- > 2008.pdf> > >> >> > and > >> >> > haven't been able to find out what happened - I have seen some > >> >> > sporadic > >> >> > mention in message groups but nothing definitive.
