How to use this tool?
This free online converter lets you convert code from Elm to R in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Elm code in the input box.
- Click the convert button.
- The resulting R code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from Elm to R using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.
Example 1 - Is String Palindrome
Program that checks if a string is a palindrome or not.

Key differences between Elm and R
Characteristic | Elm | R |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Elm has a syntax similar to Haskell, with a strong emphasis on functional programming. | R has a syntax that is primarily focused on statistical analysis and data manipulation. |
Paradigm | Elm is a purely functional programming language. | R is a multi-paradigm language, supporting both functional and object-oriented programming. |
Typing | Elm has a strong static type system that helps catch errors at compile-time. | R has a dynamic type system, allowing for more flexibility but potentially leading to runtime errors. |
Performance | Elm is designed for high-performance web applications, with a focus on minimizing runtime errors. | R is optimized for data analysis and statistical computing, but may not perform as well for other tasks. |
Libraries and frameworks | Elm has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to R. | R has a large and active community, resulting in a wide range of libraries and frameworks available. |
Community and support | Elm has a smaller community compared to R, but it is known for being friendly and helpful. | R has a large and active community, with extensive online resources and support available. |
Learning curve | Elm has a relatively steep learning curve, especially for developers new to functional programming. | R has a moderate learning curve, with a focus on statistical analysis and data manipulation. |
