Location

Room 1114, Scientific Research Laboratory Building

Event

Group seminar, computation workshop

In this workshop, we share two ways to speed up your computation. One is combining R with compiled language such as C and C++. Both the internal C API and the Rcpp family are introduced. Another way is parallel computation. Besides the user friendly foreach and future.apply packages, we also touched a bit about asynchronous computation using future package and adding progress bar in your long time computation.
