loadr

Usually, RData files are loaded via load(). This places all objects in the RData file in the global workspace. loadr allows RData files to be loaded directly into variables.

Example

x = pi                     # make some data
save(x, file= "pi.RData")  # save data
rm(x)                      # remove data
x = load_rdata('pi.RData') # load data

When RData contains multiple objects, the objects are loaded into a list

x_list = list(pi = pi, pi_sq = pi^2)
save(x_list, file= "pi_list.RData")
rm(x_list)
x_list = load_rdata('pi_list.RData')
