Some chemicals have concentrations at or below the method detection limit (MDL; 'less-thans') of 0.005 mg/L. When I look at the data frame that is how the concentration is displayed. But, when I ask for a summary() of that data frame column only 0 is displayed. How can I adjust the number of digits displayed by functions such as summary()? Rich
