fp.factor.matrix {fingerprint} | R Documentation

## Converts a List of Fingerprints to a data.frame of Factors

### Description

This function will convert a `list` of fingerprint objects to a `data.frame` of factors with levels 1 and 0.

### Usage

    fp.factor.matrix(fplist)

### Arguments

`fplist` | A list structure with each element being an object of class `fingerprint`. These will can be constructed by hand or read from disk via `fp.read`

### Value

A matrix with dimensions equal to `(length(fplist), length(fplist))`

### Examples

    # make fingerprint objects
    fp1 <- new("fingerprint", nbit=6, bits=c(1,2,5,6))
    fp2 <- new("fingerprint", nbit=6, bits=c(1,4,5,6))
    fp3 <- new("fingerprint", nbit=6, bits=c(2,3,4,5,6))

    fp.factor.matrix( list(fp1,fp2,fp3) )
