# devel/R-bit - The NetBSD Packages Collection

Class for vectors of 1-bit booleans

    bitmapped vectors of booleans (no NAs), coercion from and to logicals,
    integers and integer subscripts; fast boolean operators and fast
    summary statistics. With 'bit' vectors you can store true binary
    booleans {FALSE,TRUE} at the expense of 1 bit only, on a 32 bit
    architecture this means factor 32 less RAM and ~ factor 32 more speed
    on boolean operations. Due to overhead of R calls, actual speed gain
    depends on the size of the vector: expect gains for vectors of size >
    10000 elements. Even for one-time boolean operations it can pay-off to
    convert to bit, the pay-off is obvious, when such components are used
    more than once. Reading from and writing to bit is approximately as
    fast as accessing standard logicals - mostly due to R's time for
    memory allocation. The package allows to work with pre-allocated
    memory for return values by calling .Call() directly: when evaluating
    the speed of C-access with pre-allocated vector memory, coping from
    bit to logical requires only 70% of the time for copying from logical
    to logical; and copying from logical to bit comes at a performance
    penalty of 150%. the package now contains further classes for
    representing logical selections: 'bitwhich' for very skewed selections
    and 'ri' for selecting ranges of values for chunked processing. All
    three index classes can be used for subsetting 'ff' objects (ff-2.1-0
    and higher).

Binary packages can be installed with the high-level tool pkgin (which can be installed with pkg_add) or pkg_add(1) (installed by default). The NetBSD packages collection is also designed to permit easy installation from source.
