It appears that your initial vector (x) is a numeric one that you
(obviously) need to transform to a character vector. So any number
it contains will have been shortened to its minimal representation when
you convert it to string. As far as I can tell (though I'm no expert in
number representation), you should work with x as a string vector from
the very beginning (which, to me, seems rather intuitive as the 0 in
1.230 is, really, only a string isn't it ?)
If you can "see" zeros when you print the numeric vector by e.g.
print (x), that's simply because R displays them with a default
precision but they may contain many more digits... Try dput (x) before
str <- as.character (x) and you will see what I mean.
Also, it may be usefull to look at what the following lines produce :
sprintf("%.10f", x)
sprintf("%.30f", x)
You will see that actually R stores many more digits that what you
think there are and that your "0" in "1.340" for example is,
really not single... except when it is basically a string.
