无法在MATLAB中调用R

Question

I followed this post http://neurochannels.blogspot.com/2010/05/how-to-run-r-code-in-matlab.html , to install R(D)Com server in order to call R from the MATLAB, but i get error messages:

Error using openR (line 68)
Cannot connect to R.
Error using COM.StatConnectorSrv_StatConnector/Init
Error: Object returned error code: 0x80040013

What is going here? Are there any other ways to call R in MATLAB? I was told that

system 

can bee used to call other execution programmes, but how?

Answer 1

After using R(D)COM and Matlab R-link for a while, I do not recommend it. The COM interface has trouble parsing many commands and it is difficult to debug the code. I recommend using a system command from Matlab as described in the R Wiki . This also avoids having to install RAndFriends.
