[R] Wired result when I convert from Character to Numeric
Hi, Below is my simple result in R> x = "1282553.8210000000" > as.numeric(x)[1] 1282554 Any idea where all numbers in the decimal places (ie 8, 2, 1) are gone? Thanks,

Hi, Christofer, try print(as.numeric(x), digits = 10) # or another number of digits to increase the printed(!) precision.
