Map SNP IDs to genome coordinates
I have several SNP IDs (i.e., rs16828074, rs17232800, etc...), I want to their coordinates in a Hg19 genome from UCSC genome website.
I would prefer using R to accomplish this goal. How to do that?

What's a sensible way to represent a binary genome for a genetic algorithm?
My previous question belied my inexperience and was based on an assumption. Now I am much wiser. (Put 1s and 0s in a string? Pah! I laugh at the suggestion!)
My question is then, how should I encode my genomes?
On paper, they look like…
