GitHub - mmaechler/R-bitops: R package 'bitops' -- implementing bitwise operations (original) (raw)

R-bitops -- R CRAN package bitops -- implementing bitwise operations

Functionality

Bitwise operations on (the 32-bit) \R integers

Context and History

Probably the smallest CRAN R package I maintain, the package has a long history, originating as S / S-plus extensions by Steve Dutky.

I got involved for the first time around 2004, and later became maintainer as Steve had moved on, and other CRAN packages depended on bitops, see bitops on CRAN.
