- Click the convert button.
- The resulting Swift code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from R to Swift 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 Swift
Characteristic | R | Swift |
---|---|---|
Syntax | R uses a syntax that is similar to traditional programming languages, with a focus on statistical analysis and data manipulation. | Swift uses a modern and concise syntax that is easy to read and write, with a focus on safety and performance. |
Paradigm | R is primarily a functional programming language, but it also supports procedural and object-oriented programming paradigms. | Swift is a multi-paradigm language that supports both object-oriented and functional programming. |
Typing | R is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime. | Swift is statically typed, meaning that variable types are checked at compile-time. |
Performance | R is optimized for data analysis and statistical computing, but it may not be as performant as languages like C or Swift. | Swift is designed to be fast and efficient, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. |
Libraries and frameworks | R has a rich ecosystem of libraries and packages for statistical analysis, data visualization, and machine learning. | Swift has a growing number of libraries and frameworks for iOS, macOS, and server-side development. |
Community and support | R has a large and active community of data scientists and statisticians, with extensive online resources and forums. | Swift has a growing community of developers, with official documentation and support from Apple. |
Learning curve | R has a relatively steep learning curve, especially for beginners without a background in programming. | Swift has a moderate learning curve, with a syntax that is easy to understand and a wealth of learning resources available. |
