Renjin is a new interpreter for the R Language for Statistical Computing, built on the Java Virtual Machine.

The primary goals of the project are to provide a modern interpreter that serves as a drop-in replacement for GNU-R, but is easier to integrate with other systems, offers better performance, and is more extensible.

For more information, please visit http://www.renjin.org.

You can add Renjin to your Maven/Ivy/etc build by adding the following dependency and repository:

<dependencies>
  <dependency>
    <groupId>org.renjin</groupId>
    <artifactId>renjin-script-engine</artifactId>
    <version>0.7.0-RC2</version>
  </dependency>
</dependencies>
<repositories>
  <repository>

    <name>bedatadriven public repo</name>
    <url>http://nexus.bedatadriven.com/content/groups/public/</url>
  </repository>
</repositories>

Standalone distributions of Renjin are available for ad-hoc analysis. Downloads are available at Renjin.org.

Artifacts from the latest successful build are available from the build server at http://build.bedatadriven.com/job/renjin/lastSuccessfulBuild/.

At this time, building Renjin completely is only supported on a Linux system with gcc-4.6 installed. The resulting Java builds are fully platform-independent.

See BUILDING for more information.
