bits_to_uint

uint_to_bits

Convert between bits and unsigned integers

Bit-level reading and writing are necessary when dealing with
many file formats e.g. compressed data and binary files.  Currently, R
connections are manipulated at the byte level.  This package wraps existing
connections and raw vectors so that it is possible to read bits, bit sequences,
unaligned bytes and low-bit representations of integers.

bits_to_uint function

<dl><dt>bits</dt>
<dd>logical vector of bit values in MSB first order</dd>
<dt>nbits</dt>
<dd>number of bits per integer. If NULL, then <code>bits</code> is assumed
to represent a single integer value. If not NULL, then the number of 
values in <code>bits</code> must be a multiple of <code>nbits</code></dd>
<dt>x</dt>
<dd>vector of unsigned integers</dd></dl>
