R help - Dec 2007 - format numbers in a contingency table

Hi,

I am constructing a contingency table using xtabs. The function works great:
      mo
yr               Sep           Oct           Nov           Dec
  1950 -7.164486e-02  3.152674e-02 -1.283389e-02  1.570382e-01
  1951  3.054293e-02  4.665234e-02 -2.445499e-04  8.720204e-02
  1952  3.937034e-02 -4.790636e-02  5.022616e-02  1.180279e-01

but I wonder if there is an argument I can pass to xtabs to format the
numbers in the table. For example, -0.0716 instead of -7.164486e-02. Does
anyone know?

Thanks!

Try:

print(x, digits = 3)
