Is it possible to save plots as byte streams? For example, if I want the bytes for a PNG plot, I could use
#Write the plot to a PNG file png("test.png") plot(1:10) dev.off() #Read the bytes back in from the file plotbytes <- readBin("test.png", "raw", n=2000) Ideally, I'd like to avoid having to bother writing to the file in the first place, and simply store the bytes in a variable. How do I do this? Regards, Richie.
