Here are my notes from a recent talk I gave on vectorization at a Davis R Users’ Group meeting. Thanks to Vince Buffalo, John Myles White, and Hadley Wickham for their input as I was preparing this. Feedback welcome! Beginning R users are often told to “vectorize” their code. Here, I try to explain why vectorization can be advantageous in R by showing how R works under the hood. Now, remember, premature optimization is the root of all evil (Knuth).

In this post, I talk about parallelism in R. This post is likely biased towards the solutions I use. For example, I never use mcapply nor clusterApply; I prefer to always use foreach. In this post, we will focus on how to parallelize R code on your computer with package {foreach}. In this post, I use mainly silly examples just to show one point at a time. Basics of foreach You can install R package {foreach} with install.packages("foreach"). library(foreach)
