Re: [igraph] : C and R Language

Hi,

R studio is just a GUI to R, so it does not matter if it is plain R in
a terminal or RStudio, in this respect at least.

If you wrote C code that uses igraph, that is not that easy to use
from R. As I see you have two options:

- create a separate R package, that links to the igraph R package.
This probably requires that you modify the igraph R package as well,
so that your package can link to it.

- put your C code into the igraph R package, and write a wrapper to it from R.

None of these are easy, and you'll need to read 'Writing R extensions'
carefully:
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-devel/R-exts.html

I think, unless you have written a *really a lot* of C code, you are
better off rewriting it in R.
