This was what I was looking for to solve the truncate to 17 digits. Thanks a lot.
Now my output looks like this: 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 1 0 ,0.1996008 On Thu, Sep 25, 2008 at 4:28 PM, Christos Hatzis < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > paste(rev(as.integer(intToBits(as.integer(x))[1:17])), collapse="") > > -Christos > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jason Thibodeau > > Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2008 4:11 PM > > To: Duncan Murdoch > > Cc: r-help@r-project.org > > Subject: Re: [R] Conversion to Binary (base2) > > > > This seems to work well.
