I need to do this on very large datasets ( > a few million data points). So seeking help in figuring out an implementation of the task.
Input 4 vectors which contain values as 0 or 1. (as integers, not boolean bits) vec_A = ( 0, 1, 0, 0, ...... 1, 0, 1, 0) etc vec_B = (0,0,1,1.....) vec_C, vec_D (similar to above) All four vectors are same length. I need to compute frequency count of the boolean literals for DCBA, DCBA 0000 0001 0010 0011 .. .. 1111 Questions: a) Is there a mechanism for combining the 4 vectors (in integer formats) into 4 bits of a new vector or some other type? (or treat them as boolean values true/false instead of 0 or 1 integers). b) what is the most efficient mechanism for obtaining the frequency count of each of the sixteen Boolean combinations? I need to do this frequently on large datasets. So am trying to get an efficient implementation (instead of a quick and dirty scheme). Thank you very very much in advance.
