Hamming Distances of Vectors
Description
If both x
and
y
are vectors, hamming.distance
returns the Hamming
distance (number of different bytes) between this two vectors. If
x
is a matrix, the Hamming distances between the rows of x
are computed and y
is ignored.
Usage
hamming.distance(x, y)
Arguments
x |
a vector or matrix. |
y |
an optional vector. |
Examples
x <- c(1, 0, 0)
y <- c(1, 0, 1)
hamming.distance(x, y)
z <- rbind(x,y)
rownames(z) <- c("Fred", "Tom")
hamming.distance(z)
