Description
Convert or print integers in octal format, with as many digits as are needed to display the largest,
using leading zeroes as necessary.
Usage
as.octmode(x)
Arguments
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.
Details
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".
There is a ! method and |, & and xor methods: these recycle their arguments to the length of the
longer and then apply the operators bitwise to each element.
