Convert ASCII string to Decimal in R (vice versa) was: Hex
Hi Dieter,
Sorry my mistake. I wanted to convert them
into Decimal (not Hexadecimal).
Given this string, the desired answer follows:
> ascii_str <- "ORQ>IK"
79 82 81 62 73 75
> ascii_str2 <- "FDC"
70 68 67

bug when subtracting decimals?
Try this:
0.7-0.3==0.4
(We get FALSE)
0.7-0.3<0.4
(We get TRUE)
but
0.8-0.3==0.5
(TRUE)
0.8-0.3<0.5
(FALSE)
Funny, he?
There is a way around:
round(0.7-0.3,1)==0.4
(TRUE)
Obviously there is a problem with some combinations of decimal subtractions,
that - we have the feeling - shouldt be solved.
Best regards

Schema.rb and MySQL decimal
Hi,
I have a mysql schema with some decimal(20,20) fields. Now, I made a
rake db_schema_dump for deployment of my applications on other machines.
Rails created a schema.rb with the decimal fields as float.
After a rake db_schema_import the fields are just float not decimal. How
can I force rails to create decimal(20,20) columns instead of float?
Thx.

larger decimal numbers get rounded ....
Hi,
I am sure there is a reason but ...... why larger decimal numbers get rounded to the nearest integer?
Example:
a <- 3308000.5
a
[1] 3308001
I would like my numbers to be decimals .... since they do represent coordinates and i don't want them rounded .... how can i keep them as they are?
Thanks,
Monica

Decimal
Can someone please tell me the best approach to adding support for
editing MySQL decimal types in rails?
I have a field in the DB that represents currency, and the view will not
let save anything past the decimal place so, 10.99 becomes 10.00
automatically.
Any help is appreciated.

Financial app - decimal to float conversion problem
I''m having problems with using Rails for a financial application: the
database stores financial fields as decimal, but ActiveRecord converts
these to float - so I get the rounding errors you''d expect
(http://www.mindprod.com/jgloss/floatingpoint.html).
This has come up recently, and the recommended fix seems to be to be

how do i retain decimal values
Hello,
I am trying to do a spearman correlation. My data has tied values. To
overcome this issue, I am adding some random noise (values) to my original
data. However when I add the random noise to the data, the final matrix does
not show the new values. I guess the reason being that the noise I add is
very small and the full value including the decimals gets truncated to show
only the value

read.csv and Decimal places
Hi, Novice UsR here.
I have a csv file that contains 13 columns of numeric data that have decimal places (for the most part).

Some of the fields came in with the correct decimals and some not?

number of decimal
Hi everybody,
I'm trying to set the number of decimals (i.e. the number of digits
after the "."). I looked into options but I can only set the total
number of digits, with options(digits=6). But since I have different
variables with different order of magnitude, I would like that they're
all displayed with the same number of decimals.
I searched for it and found the format()

round function seems to produce maximum 2 decimals
I am trying to use round()to force R to display a specific number of
decimals, but it seems to display <=2 decimals no matter what I specify in
the digits argument. As an alternative I tried signif(), but it also
produces unexpected results. See example code and results below. Format()
works, but then the result no longer is numeric. Am I missing something
simple?
I am using R 2.9.0 on Windows

read.csv and Decimal places
The stored numbers are correct. They are rounded on printing.
print(RevFCast, digits=17)
See
?options
And scroll down to digits.

read.csv and Decimal places
... and see also ?print.data.frame , the "digits" argument.
See also ?str
It might be worth your while spending time with an R tutorial or two that
covers such topics, i.e. distinguishing between an object and various (S3)
methods that "represent" it, such as print(), summary(), plot() etc.

Change DB data type and limited decimals
Rails3.1.3
I have db type,
startp:integer
I need to change it to float. More specifically,
1.2, 45.1, 143.8 ...
I have two questions:
1. Is removing and adding the field through migration the only way?
in other words, is there a single command to change the type?
2. Is there anyway to limit the decimal place to only one?
56.3, 34.2... are acceptable, but 23.112, 77.34, ... are
