Description
talk2stat allows programs (such as latextopdf, nodejs) to communicate with statistical packages. Currently, we connect with R, julia, matlab, or python but extending it to other tools like Stata or SAS, is very simple. The package contains two main functions: server() talks to the client program (e.g latextopdf) via a socket (inet), and to the stats package (R, julia, matlab, python) via a bi-directional pipe. The client() function is called by the user (e.g. latextopdf) to establish a connection with the server and pass code to the statistical package, and get the results.
