[R] format a number

Hi there! I have i.e. v = c(0.43554, -0.22343), and so on. Now I'd like to make a format like format(v, digits=2) but without the leading 0, so 0.43554 becomes .44, -0.22343 becomes -.22 How can I do that? runnable example for copy and paste: v = c(0.43554, -0.22343) format(v, digits=2) Th
