I am very new to Python and I have long R scripts that I
would like to run under the Python Interpreter.
I'm sorry I can't help for reasons that will become apparent.
But I'd like to thank you for pointing me at R!
I've just bought a commercial statistics package(Minitab) which
cost me over $150, and it looks as if R could have done all I
needed for free - or maybe the cost of a book...
some of the the documentation regarding the RPy module,
I haven't read anything about RPy so can't help there (yet)
but it did lead me to the R web site.
GUI constructed with "easygui" --> this will retrieve pathfiles
and user's preferences (floating numbers and strings)
--> The preceeding attributes will feed the R scripts-->R scripts
will generate pdf files with plots.
It sounds like you could do this by just creating the scripts
in vanilla Python then running the R scripts under R itself
from Python usiing os.system or the Subprocess module.
Once I've investigated R and RPy a bit more I might be able
to help, but that will be a whjile... I hope someone else can
shed some light meantime.
Thanks again,
