Dear R team,
I realise that the following is a bit unsafe (the combination of doubles and
integers), however I wondered whether the following behaviour is expected:
> #Test R
> test <- vector(length=100000);
> for(i in 1:100000){temp = i/1000; test[i] = (i == temp*1000);}
> table(test);
test
FALSE TRUE
1472 98528
For example I can also make the following error:
> as.integer(259.765*1000);
[1] 259765
> as.integer(259.763*1000);
[1] 259762
Would you expect this to be the case and if so why?
Thanks for your help.
Chris Spencer
