talk

[John Garvin]

Thanks, everyone, for coming to my talk on R semantic pitfalls on the
19th. Here are the slides from it, in OpenOffice and PDF format.
Thanks especially for the thought-provoking questions; I think I
learned as much as I taught.

My R compiler project is now up at www.rcompiler.org. If you'd like to
help out, there are two ways you can help: providing sample programs
and trying out the software.

Sample programs: Your R program could be a great example to make sure
my compiler works on all inputs. It doesn't have to be "expert" R
code, just useful. The ideal sample program runs about 1 to 10
minutes; contains sample data and all the files it needs; and does
something useful to you or something computationally similar.

Trying out the software: I'm hoping to make the software possible to
download and set up soon. Right now it runs on my Linux system; I'd
like to know if it works on other machines too. Let me know if you'd
be willing to help make sure it works.

Thanks, John. It was a great talk. I've posted the PDF of the slides
on the meetup site as well, under files.
