R help - Oct 2010 - parallel for loop

Hi all,

Just following on from a previous thread (for loop). Is there a parallel
'for' loop like matlab (parfor maybe?). I know there was a Nvidia GPU
version for blas somewhere. But is there a CPU or a GPU version of the for
loop?

Thanks,
Sachin
p.s. sorry about the corporate notice below: cant get rid of it. Don't have

Take a look at the parallel computing section of:

specifically the line concerning the foreach package.
