read_rdump: Read data in an R dump file to a list

Description

Create an R list from an R dump file

Usage

read_rdump(f, keep.source = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

f

A character string providing the dump file name.

keep.source

logical: should the source formatting be retained when echoing expressions, if possible?

...

passed to source

Value

A list containing all the data defined in the dump file with keys corresponding to variable names.

Details

The R dump file can be read directly by R function source, which by default would read the data into the user's workspace (the global environment). This function instead read the data to a list, making it convenient to prepare data for the stan model-fitting function.
