[R] Parallel version of Map(rather, mapply)

[Greenberg, Jonathan]

Hi Saptarshi:

There are quite a few parallel mapply's out there -- my recommendation is to use the foreach package, since it allows you to be flexible in the parallel backend, and you don't have to write two statements (a sequential and a parallel statement) -- if a parallel backend is running, it will use that, otherwise it'll execute in sequential mode.

Subject: [R] Parallel version of Map(rather, mapply)

Hello,
I find Map to be nice interface to mapply. However
Map calls mapply which in turn calls mapply via .Internal.

Is there a parallel version of mapply (like mcapply) or do I need to write
this myself?

Regards
Saptarshi
