This free online converter lets you convert code from R to C in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your R code in the input box.
- Click the convert button.
- The resulting C code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from R to C using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.
Example 1 - Is String Palindrome
Program that checks if a string is a palindrome or not.

Key differences between R and C
Characteristic | R | C |
---|---|---|
Syntax | R has a syntax that is similar to the English language, making it easier for beginners to learn. | C has a syntax that is more complex and requires a deeper understanding of programming concepts. |
Paradigm | R is primarily a functional programming language, but it also supports object-oriented programming. | C is a procedural programming language that does not support object-oriented programming. |
Typing | R is a dynamically typed language, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime. | C is a statically typed language, meaning that variable types are determined at compile time. |
Performance | R is slower than C when it comes to performance due to its interpreted nature. | C is faster than R when it comes to performance due to its compiled nature. |
Libraries and frameworks | R has a large number of libraries and frameworks for data analysis and statistical computing. | C has a smaller number of libraries and frameworks compared to R, but it is widely used in systems programming and embedded systems. |
Community and support | R has a large and active community of users and developers, with many online resources and forums available for support. | C also has a large community of users and developers, with many online resources and forums available for support. |
Learning curve | R has a steep learning curve due to its complex syntax and focus on statistical computing. | C has a moderate learning curve, with a focus on programming concepts and syntax. |
