# Writing adapters for R's foreach package

This repository includes guides, code examples, and notes on writing

adapters for R's foreach package: https://cran.r-project.org/package=foreach

It's a work in progress. I've got a draft of a basic introductory section

and plan to add other, more detailed, sections over time.

The foreach package defines an interface between R programs and back-end

systems that can, for example, evaluate code in parallel.

The adapters in these notes are very simple and basic. They are designed

to illustrate the foreach API by example and to provide a simple guide

to writing new adapters.

You can view raw R Markdown files in the repository, and also see example

HTML output of them at these links:

- Introduction https://bwlewis.github.io/writing_foreach_adapters/introduction.html

- Code-time foreach parameters and their use

- Reproducible parallel RNG

- Foreach loop composition for efficient nested parallel routines

- Set comprehensions

- Some issues with foreach and comparison with the future package
