The goal of armadillo (previously cpp11armadillo) is to provide a novel approach to use the Armadillo C++ library by using the header-only cpp11 R package and to simplify things for the end-user.
New features
- Completely rewritten documentation, which now aims to cover all the essentials to get started with C++ and Armadillo.
- New examples, which are clearer and more informative.
- New Makevars template with commented debbuging flags and that allows to set the number of cores.
- Uses Armadillo version Cortisol Retox 12.6.7.
