You can invoke the script file with your application.

engine.Evaluate("source('c:/src/path/to/myscript.r')");

You can use rdotnet(R.NET)

R.NET enables .NET Framework to collaborate with R statistical computing. R.NET requires .NET Framework 4 and native DLLs installed with R environment. You need no other extra installations. Enjoy statistics and programming in your special language with R.

        REngine.SetEnvironmentVariables();
        REngine engine = REngine.GetInstance();
        engine.Initialize();
        //string path = "\HelloWorld.r";
        //engine.Evaluate("source('" + path + "')");
        var x = engine.Evaluate("x <- 1 + 2");
