[R] persistant: Matlab->R

[Bos, Roger]

To the extent that 'persistent' means 'global', global in R is: <<-, so
r <- 1 is local scope and r <<- 1 is global scope.

HTH, 

Roger

It is just my guess that the 'open.account' example in 10.7 Scope of
Introduciton to R is what you are after.

If I understand what 'presistent' means, the 'total' in the example is
approximately equal to a persistent variable.
