In XR: A Structure for Interfaces from R

#' A Structure for Interfaces from R
#'
#' The XR package defines classes and functions that will be extended and used by interfaces from R to
#' other languages.
#' The goals are: a uniform approach; simplicity in programming; users of application packages should be
#' essentially unaware that particular functions and objects are in fact proxies for computations in
#' other languages.
#'
#' The functions in this package will nearly always be used by other packages, providing an interface to a
#' particular language (see packages XRPython and XRJulia for examples).  Users will rarely need to call
#' functions in XR and application packages will rarely need to import it directly.
#'
#' For further details, see the reference [1] (Chapter 13 is included in the documentation for this package).
