Hello! I am trying to round the number always up - i.e., whatever the positive number is, I would like it to round it to the closest 10 that is higher than this number, the closest 100 that is higher than this number, etc.
For example: x<-3241.388 signif(x,1) rounds to the closest thousand, i.e., to 3,000, but I'd like to get 4,000 instead. signif(x,2) rounds to the closest hundred, i.e., to 3,200, but I'd like to get 3,300 instead. signif(x,3) rounds to the closest ten, i.e., to 3,240, but I'd like to get 3,250 instead. Of course, I could do: floor(signif(x,1)+1000) floor(signif(x,2)+100) floor(signif(x,3)+10) But it's very manual - because in the problem I am facing the numbers sometimes have to be rounded to a 1000, sometimes to a 100, etc. Thanks a lot for any hints! -- Dimitri Liakhovitski Ninah Consulting www.ninah.com ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
