No problem in R. This is the FAQ of all FAQs (Type III SS is probably up there as well). See the R FAQ, 7.31, for further information: http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#Why-doesn_0027t-R-think-these-numbers-are-equal_003f For your example: > all.equal(a, b) [1] TRUE <snip /> > I hope this helps, and that this is a real bug, if not, I am sorry to > have bothered you. In future - if you aren't sure that you have found a bug in R, and you've done your home work (as per the Posting Guide), post a comment/question on the R Devel list. You'd have gotten the same response (not a bug, read R FAQ 7.31) but you wouldn't have created additional work for one the the R Core Development Team who will now have to deal with your bug report in the R bug tracker.
