This free online converter lets you convert code from OCaml to R in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -

  1. Type or paste your OCaml code in the input box.
  2. Click the convert button.
  3. The resulting R code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.

Key differences between OCaml and R

CharacteristicOCamlR
SyntaxOCaml has a syntax that is similar to other functional programming languages, with a strong emphasis on pattern matching and immutability.R has a syntax that is primarily focused on statistical analysis and data manipulation, with a large number of built-in functions and operators.
ParadigmOCaml is a multi-paradigm language that supports both functional and imperative programming.R is primarily a functional programming language, but it also supports procedural and object-oriented programming.
TypingOCaml has a strong static type system that helps catch errors at compile-time.R has a dynamic type system that allows for more flexibility but can lead to runtime errors.
PerformanceOCaml is known for its high performance and efficient execution.R is not as performant as OCaml, especially for computationally intensive tasks.
Libraries and frameworksOCaml has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to R, but it still has a decent collection for various domains.R has a vast collection of libraries and frameworks specifically designed for statistical analysis, data visualization, and machine learning.
Community and supportOCaml has a smaller community compared to R, but it has dedicated users and active development.R has a large and active community with extensive support and resources available.
Learning curveOCaml has a steeper learning curve due to its functional programming concepts and syntax.R has a relatively lower learning curve, especially for users with a background in statistics and data analysis.
