[R] how to set the number format to pure numeric?
Hello, I want to export a numeric matrix in pure numeric format, i.e. I want 0.0001 to appear as 0.0001. But it seems the default setting for write.table is scientific notation, i.e. it will appear as 1e-04. how to set the number format to pure numeric? Thank you very much for your help. cheers, lichi shi __ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html

It's not the default, BTW. Try 0.002, say. See ?options and look at `scipen' to alter the rules. -- Brian D.
