possible to increase precision
I would like to increase the precision/accuracy of R. That is, I'm
dealing with numbers exceedingly close to 1, and I would like to
increase the number of significant digits used in computation. In
matlab, you can use vpa() to accomplish this. I'm wondering if there's
an equivalent or a workaround in R.

protential rounding error concern
Dear All,
I am running a r code on 32bit win, involving absolutely small numbers.
Although I tried sth like the ratio of numers like 10^(-100) and did not
have issue to get the correct answer,
but still a little concerned about it.
Could anyone give some suggestion or have any experience?
Best wishes,
Jie
