Dear R users
I am R newbie creating a function that implements the poker test to test
pseudo random bit generators.
Iam reading the bits from a text file (1 bit per line), which causes
each bit to be stored in an element of a numeric vector.
What Iam trying to do is to extract a block of bits of arbitray size
from the original vector into a smaller numeric vector and then count
this binary number
(and keep repeating this until the end of the vector, so that I get a
vector containing the number of times each binary number has occured) e.g.
original vector:
0, 1,1,0,0,1,0,1,1
using a block size of 3 bits the first smaller vector becomes:
0, 1, 1
At the momemt I do this by iterating through the original vector and set
the ith element of the smaller vector.
I have looked at using the subset() function but it seems to operate on
a vector's content rather than index.
This causes the following two main questions:
1. Is there a way to specify a range of vector elements?
2. Is this the most efficient method, since this could be extremly time
consuming when used to test millions of bits?
Thanks very much in advance
