Hello,
Splus contains the function intbin(x,l).

This function allows to make a conversion from an integer x to a binary of length l.

for example

intbin(3,2) returns 11

intbin(3,3) returns 011

Do you know how to do it in R ?

Thank you meriema

you can use the following function


encode <- function(number, base) {
  # simple version of APL-encode / APL-representation "T", pw 10/02
  # "encode" converts the numbers "number" using the radix vector "base"
  n.base <- length(base); result <- matrix(0, length(base), length(number))
  for(i in n.base:1){
    result[i,] <- if(base[i]>0) number %% base[i] else number
    number     <- ifelse(rep(base[i]>0,length(number)),
                         floor(number/base[i]), 0)
  }
  return( if(length(number)==1) result[,1] else result )
}

paste(encode(c(13), c(2,2, 2, 2, 2)),collapse="")
[1] "01101"
encode(c(13), c(2,2, 2, 2, 2))
[1] 0 1 1 0 1
