h5 (version 0.9.9)

Interface to the 'HDF5' Library

Description

S4 Interface to the 'HDF5' library supporting fast storage and retrieval of R-objects like vectors, matrices and arrays to binary files in a language independent format. The 'HDF5' format can therefore be used as an alternative to R's save/load mechanism. Since h5 is able to access only subsets of stored data it can also handle data sets which do not fit into memory.
