NAME

       Statistics::R::IO::RData - Supply object methods for RData files

VERSION

       version 1.0002

SYNOPSIS

           use Statistics::R::IO::RData;

           my $rdata = Statistics::R::IO::RData->new('.RData');
           my %r_workspace = $rdata->read;
           while (my ($var_name, $value) = each %r_workspace) {
               print $var_name, $value;
           }
           $rdata->close;

DESCRIPTION

       "Statistics::R::IO::RData" provides an object-oriented interface to parsing RData files.
       RData files store a serialization of a collection of named objects, typically a workspace.
       These files are created in R using the "save" function and are typically named with the
       ".RData" file extension. (Contents of the R workspace can also be saved automatically on
       exit to the file named .RData, which is by default automatically read in on startup.)

METHODS

       "Statistics::R::IO::RData" inherits from Statistics::R::IO::Base and provides an
       implementation for the "read" method that parses RData files.

       read
           Reads a contents of the filehandle and returns a hash whose keys are the names of
           objects stored in the file with corresponding values as Statistics::R::REXP instances.
