[1] "1.00" @ as a string/character object
returns 1
is there anyway that I can get it to return 1.00. I am using the
results of this max statement in a grep statement and it returns the
wrong numbers, I will provide more information and code if it would
make more sense in context.

Let's not spend our time and resources thinking about things that are
so little or so large that all they really do for us is puff us up and
make us feel like gods. We are mammals, and have not exhausted the
annoying little problems of being mammals.
