hamming.distance(x, y)
x
| a vector or matrix. |
y
| an optional vector. |
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.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)
