Example code to run the model in R

[AkihisaNomoto]

Hi @tom-parkinson,

I saw (perhaps) your comment in our manuscript saying that you could develop an R package to run the model. Thank you for the suggestion.

Do you think it would be worth implementing this as a native R package for R users? Right now, it's implemented using reticulate, since I am not fluent in R. But if you think R users would prefer a R package, I’m very open to that. The only downside is that we would need to maintain both R and Python code—but the logic is quite simple, so it may not be a big issue.

Please let me know what you think.

I don't feel it's essential for the reason you listed - running the Python package with reticulate makes maintenance simpler. I also suspect the R user base is tiny. But if I want to use the model I'll likely write my own functions to work with the API in R using {{httr2}}. If / when that happens, I'd be happy to invest a little extra time to turn it into a more general package for other users.

Thanks! Let’s leave this for now. If that happens, it would be great if you could write the code in this repo.
