Thanks to all who so promptly responded with comments and information, and especially to Philippe Grosjean for giving the URL for that most interesting set of benchmark comparisons. I well take the point that comparative speeds will depend on what you are doing -- indeed that is apparent from the benchmarks -- but there is still evidence that overall one can expect distinctly greater speed from R. Best wishes to all, Ted. -------------------------------------------------------------------- E-Mail: (Ted Harding) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Fax-to-email: +44 (0)870 167 1972 Date: 20-Jun-03 Time: 16:50:18 ------------------------------ XFMail ------------------------------ ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help
