Abstract:

We describe a framework for building software components for statistical computing implemented in R (www.r-project.org). These software components provide a transparent ActiveX (COM) interface between traditional R objects and methods and Microsoft's ActiveX clients, such as Excel, Access, and corporate applications such as Business Objects (www.businessObjects.com), Oracle, etc.
