Create vector of virtual mode
Description
vector.vmode
creates a vector of a given vmode and length
Usage
vector.vmode(vmode = "logical", length = 0)
boolean(length = 0)
quad(length = 0)
nibble(length = 0)
byte(length = 0)
ubyte(length = 0)
short(length = 0)
ushort(length = 0)
Arguments
vmode
virtual mode
length
desired length
Details
Function vector.vmode
creates the vector in one of the usual storage.modes
(see .rammode
) but flags them with an additional attribute 'vmode' if necessary.

2 bit unsigned integer without NA
nibble
4 bit unsigned integer without NA
byte
8 bit signed integer with NA
ubyte
8 bit unsigned integer without NA
short
16 bit signed integer with NA
ushort
16 bit unsigned integer without NA
integer
32 bit signed integer with NA
single
32 bit float

64 bit float
complex
2x64 bit float
raw
8 bit unsigned char
character
