How to integrate SAS University Edition with R?

Is there any way by which we can call R from SAS Studio with SAS University Edition? I understand that we can call R using PROC IML if we run a native SAS. Should we run a R server on a local computer to get that to work? Thanks.

So it's not really supported.

I guess that you could pass result sets as external files between SAS and R, or any other more manual way.

Is it crucial to have that in this environment? It's for learning SAS, not R....

Thanks, @LinusH. It is not crucial but nice to have.

The SAS University Edition includes SAS/IML software, which is a matrix language that has similar functionality to R and MATLAB. You might want to read "Ten tips for learning the SAS/IML language."
