[R 3.0 icon] What does LOOK do ? Program LOOK allows to regarde at the binary files written by SIMIL or IMPORT-EXPORT (Macintosh version); these matrices cannot be read directly because they are written in binary and not in ASCII. Since the user is often interested only to regarde at the block of general information at the beginning of the file (title, date, function, number of objects, number of descriptors), a first window, in the Macintosh version, presents only that information. After that, the user is invited to request that the binary file be copied into an ASCII file, if he so desires. In the output file, after the block of information of the file, only the upper triangle of the resemblance matrix is printed, together with the object names identifying the rows and columns.
