Hi, A piece of my code that uses readBin() to read a certain file type is behaving strangely with R 2.7.0. This seems to be because of a failure to match() strings after using rawToChar() when the original was terminated with a "\0" character. Direct equality testing with == still works as expected. I can reproduce this as follows: > x <- "foo" > y <-

Hi, right now we have (on R v2.7.0 patched (2008-04-23 r45466)) that: > rawToChar(raw(0)) [1] "" > rawToChar(raw(0), multiple=TRUE) character(0) Is this intended or should both return character(0)? Personally, I would prefer that an empty input vector returns an empty output vector. Same should then apply to charToRaw(), but right now we get: > x <- character(0) >

Hello, Suppose in the following code, PROTECT(sr = R_tryEval( .... )) sr is a RAWSXP vector. I wish to return another RAWSXP starting at position 13 onwards (base=0). I could create another RAWSXP of the correct length and then memcpy the required bytes and length to this new one. However is there a more efficient method? Regards Saptarshi Guha

Hello, All: Do you know of any capability to substitute more then one byte in an object of class Raw? Consider the following: > let4 <- paste(letters[1:4], collapse='') > (let4Raw <- charToRaw(let4)) [1] 61 62 63 64 > (let. <- sub('bc', '--', let4Raw)) [1] "61" "62" "63" "64" > # no

Hi, I have zlib compressed strings (example is attached) and would like to decompress them using memDecompress ... I try this: > connection <- file("compressed.txt","r") > compressed <- readLines(connection) > memDecompress(as.raw(compressed),type="g") Error in memDecompress(as.raw(compressed), type = "g") : internal error -3 in

Hi, I'm running into more issues when reading data from a gzfile connection. If I read the data sequentially with successive calls to readBin(), the data I get looks ok. But if I call seek() between the successive calls to readBin(), I get corrupted data. Here is a (hopefully) reproducible example. See my sessionInfo() at the end (I'm not on Windows, where, according to the man page,

Hi, I am puzzled with serialize(). It comes down generating identical hash codes for (apparently) identical objects using digest::digest(), which in turn relies on serialize(). Here is an example illustration the issue: ser <- function(object, ...) { list( names = names(object), namesRaw = charToRaw(names(object)), ser = serialize(names(object), connection=NULL, ascii=FALSE)

I can confirm that it doesn't happen on Ubuntu 18.04.1 so Peter is most likely correct; it looks like its Windows specific.

Hello, I would like to compress a long string (character vector), store the compressed string in the text field of a SQLite database (using RSQLite), and then load the text back into memory and decompress it back into the the original string. My character vector can be compressed considerably using standard gzip/bzip2 compression. In theory it should be much faster for me to compress/decompress

I have a two part question Part 1) I am trying to remove characters in a string based on the position of a key character in another string.? I have a solution that works but it requires a for-loop.? A vectorized way of doing this has alluded me.? CleanRead<-function(x,y) { ? if (!is.character(x)) ??? x <- as.character(x) ? if (!is.character(y)) ??? y <- as.character(y) ?

I can reproduce this behavior on my Windows 10 system in RGui (cp1252): when I paste the Unicode infinity symbol into the console, it is treated as number 8. This is caused by Windows "best fit" default behavior in conversion of unicode characters to characters in the current native encoding: at some point in the past, 8 has been chosen as a good fit for infinity in Windows. In my

Dear R-help, I would like to include the documentation of an R function in an *.rnw document processed by Sweave. Because I'm sharing my *.rnw files with colleagues under Linux and Windows (I'm on Mac OS X), I would like a pure R solution. The naive approach doesn't work, because Sweaving this *.rnw file: -------- tmp.rnw -------- \documentclass{article} \begin{document}

Hi, ?rawToChar 'rawToChar' converts raw bytes either to a single character string or a character vector of single bytes. (Note that a single character string could contain embedded nuls.) Allowing embedded nuls in a string might be an interesting experiment but it seems to cause some troubles to most of the string manipulation functions. A string with an embedded 0:

Given the following R script: x <- 1 print(list()) save(x, file = tempfile()) output <- encodeString("apple") print(output) If I source this script from RGui on Windows, I see the output: > source("encoding.R") list() [1] "\002??apple\003??" That is, it's as though R has injected what looks like byte order marks around the

Dear List, I have a list of 600+ *.gz files that I would like to extract and read the geotiffs contained within them. I tried using the untar() function to simplify this task but I am stumped by an error. I've combed the Internet for a solution without luck. The details are below, and any help in solving this matter is appreciated. > files = list.files(path = "J:/GIMMS/NDVI",

Of course, right after writing this e-mail I tested on my Windows machine and did not see what I expected: > charToRaw(before) [1] c3 a9 > charToRaw(after) [1] e9 so obviously I'm misunderstanding something as well.

Hi, I need to resample characters from a dataset that consists of an extremely long string that is written over hundreds of thousands of lines, each of length 50 characters. I am currently doing this by first inserting a space after each character in the dataset and then using the following commands: y <- as.matrix(read.table("data.txt"), stringsAsFactors=FALSE) bstrap <-
