How do I convert a list of bits, say {0, 1, 1, 0, 0}, to a corresponding character string, "01100"? Just for bits, the expression StringJoin[lis /. {0 -> "0", 1 -> "1"}] does what I want. But, more generally, how do I do the same with arbitrary digits? The expression similar to the above but for all 9 digits 0, 1, 2, ..., 9 seems overly long. Is there an easier way? (I have the unpleasant feeling that I've asked this before. It's apparently just one of those things that I cannot readily find in Help.) -- Murray Eisenberg murray at math.umass.edu Mathematics & Statistics Dept.
