R gurus, Every so often(*) someone asks how to suppress scientific notation in printing, so I thought I'd give it a shot, but I need some help. The formatting decision is made(**) on line 286 of src/main/format.c : if (mF <= *m) { /* IFF it needs less space : "F" (Fixpoint) format */ where mF is the number of characters for "normal" printing and *m is the number

Is there a better alternative to x = c(1e7, 2e7) x.lb = c(0,1e7,2e7) s.lb = format(x.lb, scientific = FALSE, big.mark = ",") barplot(x, yaxt = "n", ylab = "") axis(side = 2, at = x.lb, labels = s.lb) (I am sure there is a better alternative to line 2 :)). Thank you. -- View this message in context:

This is strange. I see what

The labels on the x-axis are defaulting to scientific notation no matter how small cex.axis is. How can I override scientific notation to get the labels to print out as specified? Here is the code (UNIT here is 0.0105): plot(xm,yv,log="xy",ylim=c(0.1,20)/UNIT,xlim=c(0.004,20)*UNIT,xaxt="n",t ype="n") axis(1,

Under R-1.5.0 on Solaris 2.6: R> prettyNum(123456789, big.mark=",") [1] ",123,456,789" and that bad behavior (leading comma) spills into formatC as well: R> formatC(123456789, digits=0, format="f", big.mark=",") [1] ",123,456,789" Looks to me like a bug in src/library/base/R/format.R, in function prettyNum: B.[i.big] <-

Dear R users: I assigned students to make some graphs and I'm having trouble answering some questions that they have. We are all working on R 2.1 on Fedora Core Linux 4 systems. 1. In the plot, the axis is not labeled by "numbers", but rather scientific notation like "-2e+08" or such. We realize that means -200,000,000. We want to beautify the plot. We would rather

I'm trying to display my deciles without scientific notation, but have not found an option that will allow me to do so. According to web searches, the options(scipen=999) should remove scientific notation, but it seems not too. Does this option work with quantcut function? Is there any other option that can be used? I am using verison 2.10.0. library(gtools) library(gdata)

Dear List: Below is how I specify an axis: axis(2, at=c(0.00005, 0.0005)) R displays the numbers in scientific notation. What argument/parameter should I use to tell R to display the numbers as specified rather than in scientific notation? > version _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch i386 os mingw32 system i386, mingw32 status major

Sorry for asking such a simple question, but I couldn't find the answer through a search... How can I get R to show me the values of estimates *not* in scientific notation? When I use summary() after using lm() I am getting numbers like 4.485107e-01, when what I want to see is 0.4485.... Thanks, Brian

Hi! If I use format() on numeric vector, na.encode argument does not have any e= ffect. This was reported before: - https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2007-October/143881.html - http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/e2/devel/06/09/0360.html It works for other (say character) classes! > format(c("a", NA), na.encode=3DTRUE) [1] "a " "NA" >

Hi I am using xyplot() to plot on the log scale by using scale=list(log=T) argument. For example: xyplot(1:10~1:10, scales=list(log=T)) But the axis labels are printed as scientific notation (10^0.0, etc), instead of fixed notation. How can I change that to fixed notation? options(scipen=4) doesn't work on xyplot() Thanks John

Dear Help-Rs,   I'm working with a file that contains large numbers and I need to export them "as is".  for example take:   x <- c(27104010002005,27104020001805,27104090001810,90050013000140,90050013000120) y <- c(1:5) df <- data.frame(cbind(x,y))   When I then try a simple: write.csv(df,file="df.csv")   I get:  x y 1 2.7104E+13 1 2 2.7104E+13 2 3 2.71041E+13 3

The format.info() function currently takes args (x, digits = NULL, nsmall = 0), while format.default() takes many more: function (x, trim = FALSE, digits = NULL, nsmall = 0, justify = c("left", "right", "centre", "none"), width = NULL, na.encode = TRUE, scientific = NA, big.mark = "", big.interval = 3, small.mark = "",

Moving from S-plus to R I encountered many great features and a much more stable system. Currently, I am left with 2 problems that are handled differently: 1) I did lots of "overplots" in S-Plus using par(new=T,xaxs='d',yaxs='d') to fix the axes ->What is the workaround in R ? 2) In S-Plus I could fix "scientific notation" or "normal notation" in

Hello, A small problem I can't solve > p <- 0.0001 > p [1] 1e-04 How can I force the printout of p to 0.0001? I have tried 'format', 'round', 'signif', 'print' in different combinations without success. Fredrik Lundgren
