similar to: base::format adds extraneous whitespace for some inputs

I can reproduce this. It has to do with whether the value rounds down to 9 or up to 10, and thus needs another space, I think. I agree that it shouldn't happen, but at least you can get rid of the space by using trim = TRUE. # rounds to 9 vs 10 format(9.95, digits = 2) format(9.96, digits = 2) format(9.95, digits = 2, nsmall = 2) format(9.96, digits = 2, nsmall = 2) format(9.95, digits =

The sshd_config file shipped with OpenSSH Portable 6.3p1 (and several earlier versions as well) contains an extra space at the end of lines 87 and 88. The attached patch corrects this. Jason

Hi, First of all, thanks for the efforts of all the developers and contributors - I'm very new to R and at the moment am just using it to create some graphics, but it seems to be quite powerful. I've googled the archives and wasn't able to find anyhting that dealt with this problem, so would appreciate any suggestions/tips. In a pairs plot I'd like to plot a linear regression line

Full_Name: Dirk Jacob Version: R 2.8.1 and 2.9.1 OS: Win XP Submission from: (NULL) (153.96.32.62) I want to convert numbers to strings like: > inputs= c(0.3+0*(1:12) ) > (format(inputs,digits=3,scientific=T,collapse=" ")) and it works [1] "3e-01" "3e-01" "3e-01" "3e-01" "3e-01" "3e-01" "3e-01"

>From the help page of format, nsmall should control the number of digits. > format(0.123456789, nsmall = 10) [1] "0.1234567890" > format(0.123456789, nsmall = 1) [1] "0.1234568" > format(0.123456789, nsmall = 2) [1] "0.1234568" > format(0.123456789, nsmall = 8) [1] "0.12345679" It adds zeros fine but for

Hello All I am having a bit of trouble formatting my HTML with the desired number of digits after the decimal place. Am I doing something wrong/misunderstanding or is it a bug? Looking at the example supplied with ?HTML.data.frame: HTML(iris[1:2,1:2],nsmall=c(3,1),file="") Gives html output that includes the lines: </tr> <tr><td

Hello, helpeRs, I have a vector of numbers from 1-365 (days of the year) that I would like to convert to a date. There are no NA's and no missing values. I did not insert leading zero's for numbers less than 100. Using the syntax: dat$doy.1 <- as.numeric(format(dat$doy, "%j" )) I get the following error message: Error in prettyNum(.Internal(format(x, trim, digits,

Dear R developers, I have encountered strange behaviour of fitdistr for gamma in recent R build i.e. 2.2.0. I have attached the code for data at the end of this mail so you can reproduce the problem. In short, I am able to run fitdistr under 2.1.0 without problems, while I get the following error under 2.2.0 (Version 2.2.0 Patched (2005-11-15 r36348)) > fitdistr(otm, "gamma") Error

Hello The data set I am examining has 7425 observations (rows with unique identifiers) and 46 samples(columns). I have been trying to generate a dataset that filters out observations that are "negligible" The definition of "negligible" is absolute value less or equal to 1.58. The rule that I would like to adopt to create a new data is: drop rows in which 2 or more

Dear R-collegues, I'm getting an error message (Error in round) when summarising a glm.nb model, and when using anova.negbin (in R 1.3.1 for windows): > m.nb <- glm.nb(tax ~ areal) > m.bn Call: glm.nb(formula = tax ~ areal, init.theta = 5.08829537115498, link = log) Coefficients: (Intercept) areal 3.03146 0.03182 Degrees of Freedom: 283 Total (i.e. Null); 282

Hi there, I have been having trouble running negative binomial regression (glm.nb) using library MASS in R v2.15.0 on Mac OSX. I am running multiple models on the variables influencing the group size of damselfish in coral reefs (count data). For total group size and two of my species, glm.nb is working great to deal with overdispersion in my count data. For two of my species, I am getting a

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 = "",

Dear all; A simple? question. I'm having a problem with a math expression in the legend of a plot and I haven't found the way to get this to work, so any help will be appreciate. Basically I want to include in the plot is the R-squared and its numerical value, so I tried this: R2c<-0.82879 # R-squared of calibration model plot(1:10,1:10) legend("topleft",

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" >

I managed with success to export a data frame of 367 columns and 37 rows to a txt file, but unfortunately I couldn't manage the same with the transposed data frame. Specifically, it seems like the notebook cannot "read" correctly 367 columns, so it reads the first 145 columns and it folds down the rest of them and consequently it folds down the respective data.

Hi, I have some confusion in applying a function over a column. Here's my function. I just need to shift non-March month-ends to March month-ends. Initially I tried seq.dates, but one cannot give a negative increment (decrement) here. return(as.Date(seq.dates(format(xdate,"%m/%d/%Y"),by="months",len=4)[4]) ) Hence this simple function: > mydate <-

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

rsync --delete option tells rsync to delete extraneous files from the receiving side (ones that aren't on the sending side).But if a user accidentally deletes a file, there is no way to restore it from the server.If --delete option is not used, and the local hard disk is destroyed, restored data will include old deleted files. Is there a way for rsync server to retain backup of deleted source

Hi R users, I would like to know why these following curve densities don't appear correctly on the histograms. Thank you for your help library(lattice) library(grid) resp <- rnorm(2000) group <- sample(c("G1", "G2", "G3", "G4"), replace = TRUE, size = 1000) histogram(~ resp | group, col="steelblue", panel = function(x, ...){ std

Dataframe cust has Date-type column open.date. I wish to set up another column, with (first day of) the quarter of open.date. To be comprehensive (of course, improvement suggestions are welcome), month = function(date) { return(as.numeric(format(date,"%m"))) } first.day.of.month = function(date) { return(date + 1 - as.numeric(format(date,"%d"))) } first.day.of.quarter =
