This package is a reimplementation of <a href="http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/">Dirk Eddelbuettel&rsquo;s</a> <a href="http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/Rcpp/index.html">Rcpp</a> package with an emphasis on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C%2B%2B11">C++ 11</a>’s features. Whether it’s an R user hitting performance limitations, or someone trying to integrate a C/C++ library into their analysis, Romain’s tools are there to help.</p>
