[R] what is R equivalent of Fortran DOUBLE PRECISION ?

I noticed taht R cannot understand certain Fortran real constant formats. For instance: c14- as.double( 7.785205408500864D-02) Error: unexpected symbol in c14- as.double( 7.785205408500864D The above D is used in Fortran language to indicate the memory starage mode. That is for
