NAME

Statistics::R::IO::RData - Supply object methods for RData files

VERSION

This documentation refers to version 0.04 of the module.

SYNOPSIS

use Statistics::R::IO::RData;

my $rdata = Statistics::R::IO::RData->new('.RData');
my %r_workspace = $rdata->read;
while (my ($var_name, $value) = each %r_workspace) {
    print $var_name, $value;
}
$rdata->close;

DESCRIPTION

Statistics::R::IO::RData provides an object-oriented interface to parsing RData files. RData files store a serialization of a collection of named objects, typically a workspace. These files are created in R using the save function and are typically named with the .RData file extension. (Contents of the R workspace can also be saved automatically on exit to the file named .RData, which is by default automatically read in on startup.)

METHODS

Statistics::R::IO::RData inherits from Statistics::R::IO::Base and provides an implementation for the "read" method that parses RData files.

read

Reads a contents of the filehandle and returns a hash whose keys are the names of objects stored in the file with corresponding values as Statistics::R::REXP instances.
