| octmode {base} | R Documentation |
Convert or print integers in octal format, with as many digits as are needed to display the largest, using leading zeroes as necessary.
as.octmode(x) ## S3 method for class 'octmode': as.character(x, ...) ## S3 method for class 'octmode': format(x, width = NULL, ...) ## S3 method for class 'octmode': print(x, ...)
x |
An object, for the methods inheriting from class "octmode". |
width |
NULL or a positive integer specifying the minimum
field width to be used, with padding by leading zeroes. |
... |
further arguments passed to or from other methods. |
Class "octmode" consists of integer vectors with that class
attribute, used merely to ensure that they are printed in octal
notation, specifically for Unix-like file permissions such as
755. Subsetting ([) works too.
If width = NULL (the default), the output is padded with
leading zeroes to the smallest width needed for all the non-missing
elements.
as.octmode can convert integers (of type "integer" or
"double") and character vectors whose elements contain only
digits 0-7 (or are NA) to class "octmode".
These are auxiliary functions for file.info.
hexmode, sprintf for other options in
converting integers to octal, strtoi to convert octal
strings to integers.
