This is a bug, thanks for pointing this out. Fixed for the next release of e1071.
David ----------------- Hello, I would like to read and write sparse matrices using the functions write.matrix.csr() and read.matrix.csr() of the package e1071. Writing is OK but reading back the matrix fails: x <- rnorm(100) m <- matrix(x, 10) m[m < 0.5] <- 0 m.csr <- as.matrix.csr(m) write.matrix.csr(m, "sparse.dat") read.matrix("sparse.dat") Error in initialize(value, ...) : Can't use object of class "integer" in new(): Class "matrix.csr" does not extend that class Is something wrong with the code above or it must be considered as a bug?
