Rfast

A Collection of Efficient and Extremely Fast R Functions

v2.1.5.2 · Oct 10, 2025 · GPL (>= 2.0)

Description

A collection of fast (utility) functions for data analysis. Column and row wise means, medians, variances, minimums, maximums, many t, F and G-square tests, many regressions (normal, logistic, Poisson), are some of the many fast functions.
