Advice for introducing students to Rcpp:
I'm TAing for a statistical programming class next semester, and I'm
talking to the instructor about including Rcpp examples -- sourceCpp()
makes this very easy to sell!
The question is build environment for folks with windows machines.
Personally, I think
I have been attempting to collect enough material together to create a wiki
book of sorts for the Windows user that is likely new to C++ as well. I would
be pleased to receive progress notes/problems off-list as you venture here.
Rtools is pretty good, but there are things happening that are qu

That
I thought that packages that contain autoconf scripts won't get automatically
installed for multiple architectures and the user has to "merge" them? This
happens on any multiarch installation of R (eg Macs) not just Windows.
