Call R scripts in Matlab

Question

Is it possible to call R scripts in a MATLAB program? How can I do that?

Answer 1

You can use R in batch mode. If R is in your path, then you can call from MATLAB:

system('R CMD BATCH infile outfile');

will run the code in infile and place output in the outfile.

EDIT: You can also give it a try with another approach using a R package rscproxy and R(D)COM Server, described here.
