Maybe a very, very basic question but how can I get a vector of
values with the specific format:
001,002,010,100
instead of:
1,2,10,100
Not perfect, but might get you started:
sprintf("%03d",c(8:10,101))
or
formatC(c(8:10,101), width=3, flag="0")
For a better solution, so as not to hard-code the width:
paddedZeros <- function(x) {
formatC(x, width=max(nchar(x)), flag="0")
}
paddedZeros(c(8:10,101))
