Introduction
GNU Guile is a programming language “designed to help programmers create flexible applications that can be extended by users or other programmers with plug-ins, modules, or scripts”. It is an extension language platform and contains an efficient compiler and virtual machine allowing both out of the box use for programs in Scheme, as well as integration with C and C++ programs.
Matías Guzmán Naranjo posed an almost-complete question on StackOverflow about how to combine Guile with R via Rcpp. It turns out that the code by Matías came from this gist showing both a Guile Scheme script, and a C use case example.
