Matrix of Indicator Variables given Classification

Converts a classification vector into a matrix of indicator variables.

Usage
class(groups, k)
Arguments
groups
A numeric vector of integers. Typically the distinct entries of this vector would represent a classification of observations in a data set.
k
An integer indicating the number of groups.
Value

An $n$ (number of observations) by $k$ (number of groups) matrix of (0,1) indicator variables. The [i,j]th entry is 1 if groups[i] is j and 0 otherwise.
