I am demonstrating what may be a bug or my lack of experience. Please review as
it would help to hear from someone.

It is your lack of experience. Please do not abuse the bug reporting system.

MANY THANKS -- Franc Brglez

The function "binS2binV" returns what I consider a wrong value -- see the
terminal output

binS2binV = function(string="0001101", sep="") # this procedure is expected to convert a binary string to a binary vector ...
# but does it?? Why do we get a vector with quoted binary values??
{ qlist = strsplit(string, sep)
    qvector = qlist[[1]]
    cat("\n  string=", string)
    cat("\n qvector=", qvector)
    n = length(qvector) ; xvector = NULL
    for (i in 1:n) {
        tmp = noquote(qvector[i])
        cat("\n", i,",     tmp=", tmp)
        xvector = c(xvector, tmp)
        cat("\n", i,", xvector=", xvector)
    }
    cat("\n")
    return(xvector)
}

print(binS2binV("10101100"))

  string= 10101100
 qvector= 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 0
 1 ,     tmp= 1
 1 , xvector= 1
 2 ,     tmp= 0
 2 , xvector= 1 0
 3 ,     tmp= 1
 3 , xvector= 1 0 1
 4 ,     tmp= 0
 4 , xvector= 1 0 1 0
 5 ,     tmp= 1
 5 , xvector= 1 0 1 0 1
 6 ,     tmp= 1
 6 , xvector= 1 0 1 0 1 1
 7 ,     tmp= 0
 7 , xvector= 1 0 1 0 1 1 0
 8 ,     tmp= 0
 8 , xvector= 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 0
[1] "1" "0" "1" "0" "1" "1" "0" "0"  <== what I want is "unquoted" binary
values

on the other hand, similar, NOT-THE-SAME but related, "conversions" are working,
e.g.
# seq = "1 0 0 1 0"
#> seq
# [1] "1 0 0 1 0"
#> strsplit(paste(seq), " ")
# [[1]]
# [1] "1" "0" "0" "1" "0"
#> paste(strsplit(paste(seq), " ")[[1]], collapse="")
# [1] "10010"
# #> seq=c(0,0,0,1,1,0,1)
#> seq
# [1] 0 0 0 1 1 0 1
#> paste(strsplit(paste(seq), " "), collapse="")
# [1] "0001101"
