yes sir i used format() function like > x<-c(3,5,6) >y<-format(x,nsmall=6) >y [1] "3.000000" "5.000000" "6.000000"
but it again gives me same output > as.double(y[1]) [1] 3 i want it in decimal style like 4.000 (i.e. without string format) -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/how-to-convert-digits-to-specified-decimal-vectors-tp4498588p4500920.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
