Good day, All,

Is there any way to maintain the number of decimal places in the type of situation below? I would like to maintain the number of decimal places in 0.667, despite the fact that its column-mates have a fourth decimal place.

You would need to read it as character. If that is your choice then use the colClasses argument.


Thank you for your time.

Jim
