R help - Jul 2024 - round and trailing zero

Duncan Murdoch answered your question, but I have another. Are you going to do
some computation with the rounded numbers, or are they just for display? (One
thing I like about Excel is that I can change the display format of a cell
without changing answers that depend on that cell.) In the latter case, why
stash them in a variable? For more control of the display, consider sprintf (or
a wrapper that combines sprintf with cat).

Regards,
Jorgen Harmse.

Wouldn't dream of it.
