[R] How to force R to print 2 decimal places in column of a data.frame?
How to force R to print 2 decimal places in column of a data.frame? I tried to do so: x = inp(format(rounf(inp$Tamanho, 2), nsmall = 2),) where INP is data.frame and Size is the name of column. But has error: Error in eval.with.vis(expr, envir, enclos) : could not find function inp Lesandro Veja quais são os assuntos do momento no Yahoo! +Buscados http://br.maisbuscados.yahoo.com __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.

But has error: Error in eval.with.vis(expr, envir, enclos) : could not find function inp Lesandro Your code and description above appear to have some typos in it and the use of the round() and format() functions are not what you want here. You code has inp(...), where R is presuming that you are referring to a function called 'inp', hence the error message, since the function does not exist. Better to use sprintf() with an appropriate format specifier: set.seed(1) vec - rnorm(10) vec [1] -0.6264538 0.1836433 -0.8356286 1.5952808 0.3295078 -0.8204684 [7] 0.4874291 0.7383247 0.5757814 -0.3053884 sprintf(%.2f, vec) [1] -0.63 0.18 -0.84 1.60 0.33 -0.82 0.49 0.74 [9] 0.58 -0.31 See ?sprintf for more information. Note that the presumption here is that you want to output the numeric values to a formatted character vector for display purposes, perhaps in a table, etc. So if your actual data frame is called 'INP' and the column is called 'Size', you would use: sprintf(%.2f, INP$Size) HTH, Marc Schwartz __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
