 Hello - R-experts,


 Is there any way with which we can specify the number after
 decimal point to take. Like I have a situation where
 the values are comming 0.160325923 but I only want
 4 place to decimal say 0.1603. Is there any way for that.

 I am no expert in R- and this may sound simple to many.sorry


 Thanks for any help.

 With Regards

 Subhabrata

In addition to round() mentioned earlier, if you are merely looking to
*display* your results differently, you may want to check out the
digits option, e.g. in summary():

(This is the method signature for data.frame 's):

 summary(object, maxsum = 7,
digits = max(3, getOption(digits)-3), ...)
