Question

In batch script, I can run an R script with the following syntax:

Rterm.exe --quiet --slave --vanilla < "C:\some_script.R"

However, Powershell seems to have reserved “<” for future expansion. I am wondering if there is a direct way to run R script within another Powershell script.

Answer 1

You should probably look Rscript instead of redirection — this would become

Rscript.exe C:\someScript.R

where you can add the usual options.
