## Build and install.
To build the package the `devtools` package is used. This also provides `roxygen2` which is used for documentation and authomatic creaton of the `NAMESPACE` file.
```R
setwd("./CVE_R")  # Set path to the package root.
library(devtools) # Load required `devtools` package.
document()        # Create `.Rd` files and write `NAMESPACE`.
```
Next the package needs to be build, therefore (if pure `R` package, aka. `C/C++`, `Fortran`, ... code) just do the following.
```bash
R CMD build CVE_R
R CMD INSTALL CVE_0.1.tar.gz
```
Then we are ready for using the package.
```R
library(CVE)
help(package = "CVE")
```
## Build and install from within `R`.
An alternative approach is the following.
```R
setwd('./CVE_R')
getwd()

library(devtools)
document()
# No vignettes to build but "inst/doc/" is required!
(path <- build(vignettes = FALSE))
install.packages(path, repos = NULL, type = "source")
```
**Note: I only recommend this approach during development.**

## Reading log files.
The runtime tests (upcomming further tests) are creating log files saved in `tmp/`. These log files are `CSV` files (actualy `TSV`) with a header storing the test results. Depending on the test the files may contain differnt data. As an example we use the runtime test logs which store in each line the `dataset`, the used `method` as well as the `error` (actual error of estimated `B` against real `B`) and the `time`. For reading and analysing the data see the following example.
```R
# Load log as `data.frame`
test0 <- read.csv('tmp/test0.log', sep = '\t')
# Create a error boxplot grouped by dataset.
boxplot(error ~ dataset, test0)
```

## Environments and variable lookup.
In the following a view simple examples of how `R` searches for variables.
In addition we manipulate funciton closures to alter the search path in variable lookup and outer scope variable manipulation.
```R
droids <- "These aren't the droids you're looking for."

search <- function() {
    print(droids)
}

trooper.seeks <- function() {
    droids <- c("R2-D2", "C-3PO")
    search()
}

jedi.seeks <- function() {
    droids <- c("R2-D2", "C-3PO")
    environment(search) <- environment()
    search()
}

trooper.seeks()
jedi.seeks()
```

The next example ilustrates how to write (without local copies) to variables outside the functions local environment.
```R
counting <- function() {
    count <<- count + 1 # Note the `<<-` assignment.
}

(function() {
    environment(counting) <- environment()
    count <- 0

    for (i in 1:10) {
        counting()
    }

    return(count)
})()

(function () {
    closure <- new.env()
    environment(counting) <- closure
    assign("count", 0, envir = closure)

    for (i in 1:10) {
        counting()
    }

    return(closure$count)
})()
```

Another example for the usage of `do.call` where the evaluation of parameters is illustated (example taken (and altered) from `?do.call`).
```R
## examples of where objects will be found.
A <- "A.Global"
f <- function(x) print(paste("f.new", x))
env <- new.env()
assign("A", "A.new", envir = env)
assign("f", f, envir = env)
f <- function(x) print(paste("f.Global", x))
f(A)                                          # f.Global A.Global
do.call("f", list(A))                         # f.Global A.Global
do.call("f", list(A), envir = env)            # f.new A.Global
do.call(f,   list(A), envir = env)            # f.Global A.Global
do.call("f", list(quote(A)), envir = env)     # f.new A.new
do.call(f,   list(quote(A)), envir = env)     # f.Global A.new
do.call("f", list(as.name("A")), envir = env) # f.new A.new
do.call("f", list(as.name("A")), envir = env) # f.new A.new
```
