This is almost doing what I want. here is a snippet of my code, which is writing the x coordinate (converted to binary), and the y coordinate to a file. The major problem at this point: the paces between each digit in the cat. What is causing this?
code: sink("generated.txt", append = TRUE) cat(paste(rev(as.integer(intToBits(as.integer(input[xpointer,1])))))) output: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0,0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1,0.0998004 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0,0.1996008 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1,0.2994012 Thanks so much for the help, you all are life savers!
