I think you are halfway there. You have an embedded R session, you can assign
variables and evaluate commands. You also see RCpp and how to pass data
out. I think all I did at that point was to invert a few of those functions
to pass data in ... and there you have it in your embedded R session.

Hope this helps, Dirk
