How to use this tool?
This free online converter lets you convert code from R to Fsharp 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 Fsharp code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from R to Fsharp 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 Fsharp
Characteristic | R | Fsharp |
---|---|---|
Syntax | R uses a syntax that is similar to traditional programming languages, with a focus on statistical analysis and data manipulation. | F# uses a syntax that is similar to other functional programming languages, with a focus on immutability and expressive code. |
Paradigm | R is primarily a statistical programming language, with support for procedural and object-oriented programming paradigms. | F# is a functional-first programming language that also supports imperative and object-oriented programming paradigms. |
Typing | R is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime. | F# is statically typed, meaning that variable types are checked at compile-time. |
Performance | R is generally slower than languages like F# due to its focus on data analysis and manipulation. | F# is generally faster than languages like R due to its focus on performance and optimization. |
Libraries and frameworks | R has a wide range of libraries and frameworks for statistical analysis, data visualization, and machine learning. | F# has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks for functional programming, web development, and data processing. |
Community and support | R has a large and active community of users, with extensive online resources and support. | F# has a smaller but dedicated community of users, with active online forums and support. |
Learning curve | R has a moderate learning curve, especially for users with a background in statistics or data analysis. | F# has a moderate learning curve, especially for users with a background in functional programming or .NET development. |
