Rcpp-CUDA-TestPackage

This project was created to illustrate weird behaviour of CUDA when working with Rcpp as noted in this Stackoverflow post.

Requirements

In order to install this package, you need:

• CUDA Toolkit 9.1
• R v3.4
• Rcpp v0.12
• GCC

Setup

In the MAKEVARS file, you have to adjust the following properties according to your system:

• CUDA_HOME = /usr/local/cuda-9.1 -- Your CUDA installation directory
• R_HOME = /home/sieg/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.4 -- Your R installation directory
• CXX = /usr/bin/g++ -- Your gcc executable
• R_INC = /usr/share/R/include -- Your R include libraries

Note: Please understand that I only provide installation instructions on Linux as I don't own an Apple device and installing on Windows proved to be quite the pain.
