Dear list,
I'd like to report a bug in `prettyNum()`. When called with a numeric vector,
the `replace.zero` argument is disregarded.
> prettyNum(0, zero.print = "- ", replace.zero = TRUE)
[1] "-"
Warning message:
In .format.zeros(x, zero.print, replace = replace.zero) :
'zero.print' is truncated to fit into formatted zeros; consider 'replace=TRUE'
A character vector as input works as expected:
> prettyNum("0", zero.print = "- ", replace.zero = TRUE)
[1] "- "
Please see below a patch which I believe would fix this. I haven't tested it as
I can't easily compile R from source with my setup.
Best,
Mikko
