Hello,

is there a possibilty in R to convert numbers (double precision, 64bit) into
single precision ones (32bit).
I need that for compatibility reasons. Until now I call a C application which
casts a double to a float.

float precision32(double value) {
 return (float)value;
}

But I want to use a R only method. What can I do?

?as.single
?writeBin

Kind regards,

Sebastian
