Hi, I was wondering if there is anything more efficient than split to do the kind of conversion in the subject.

Serializing many small objects efficiently
Hi, sorry if this question is trivial or unclear, this is my first venture into mixed C/R programming (I am reasonably experienced in each separately). I am trying to write a serialization function for a format called typedbytes, which is used as an interchange format in Hadoop circles. Since I would need to serialize according to the internal R format many small R objects I looked at the c

input equivalent of capture.output
Hi, I am looking for the equivalent of capture.output for stdin. Imagine I am writing a test for a function that reads from stdin, say scan. >1: foobar 2: Read 1 item [1] "foobar" (please don't reply that scan can also read from a file, that's not what I am trying to test; let's say I found a bug that occurs only when reading from stdin, fixed it and I want to add a test
