similar to: Scientific Notation on tick marks

Hi, I have a 3 by 2 plots per page, and would like to place a legend on the last region. How to do that ? Also, is there any way to specify scientific notation for axes label ? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

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:

I'm writing a load of output to a file using cat(...), but I can't work out how to turn off scientific notation for small numbers. When I originally tried this a while a go I ended up building up a string variable, which is rather clumsy...

This is strange. I see what

Hi, Would there be a function and/or some options to force R to write a value of say 1.0e-4 as "0.0001"? More specifically I want to use R to write ASCII file(s) for other programs to read and some of these programs don't know how to deal numbers in scientific notation or have a different convention.

Hi I have a data.frame with the following numbers (first column are month numbers) 07,0,0,0,0.315444056314174,0,0,0,12.5827462764176,0.079194498691732, 0.0280828101707015,0,0.0695808222378877 08,0,0,105600,0.393061160316545,0,0,0,8.95551253153947,0.0880023174276553, 0.285714285714286,0,0.0669139911789158 09,0,0,0,0,12.5,0,0,13.5135887094281,0.0557531529154668,0,0, 0.0487526139182026

Hello, Firstly, real new to R here. I have a function intended to evaluate the values in columns spread over many tables. I have an argument in the function that allows the user to input what sequence of tables they want to draw data from. The function seems to work fine, but when the user inputs a single number (over 9) instead of a sequence using the : operator, I find an error message: the

If I knew this, I have forgotten it: Is there a way to force R to forgo use of scientific notation, e.g. to use .000029 instead of 2.9e-05? (Aside from using formatC for example) I run across this every now and then and work around it (multiple values by 100, for example) but cannot find any way to deal with it otherwise. A particularly problematic place it pops up is in axis tick labels.

Hi, How can I format numbers to engineering notation? That is, like scientific but where the exponent is always a multiple of three. Some examples: 1635 000 000 => 1.635E9 163 500 000 => 163.5E6 0.000 000 000 135 => 135E-9 I've tried format and formatC but I couldn't get them to work they I want. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Sam

R developers, Seems I get a bad result ("%#4.0-1e" in particular) when trying to use prettyNum digits=0 with scientific notation. I tried on both my Linux box and on an online R evaluator and saw the same problem, so it's not limited to my box at least. I see the problem in both R 3.5.3 and R 3.3.2. options(scipen=-100) prettyNum(1, digits=0) [1] "%#4.0-1e" prettyNum(2,

Running R 1.2.3, Windows 98 I checked the archives, and I couldn't find anything pertaining to this: How do I control format (scientific notation versus decimal, e.g.) on tick labels?

PROBLEM `signif' does change to scientic notation at different levels depending on the number of significant digits in the input. This can generate tables where figures change ``irregularly'' from normal to scientific notation. PROPOSAL The change to the scientific notation should be made only if the figure in scientific notation - with potentially as

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

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,

While I'm very pleased with the results I get with rpart and rpart.plot, I would like to change the scientific notation of the dependent variable in the plots into integers. Right now all my 5 or more digit numbers are displayed using scientific notation. I managed to find this: http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/e8/help/09/12/8423.html but I do not fully understand what to change, and to

Dear List: Below is how I specify an axis: axis(2, at=c(0.00005, 0.0005)) R displays the numbers in scientific notation.
