I have got another question on defining a method for print() function for my
s4 class. Here is my class definition as well as what I have done till now:

 

> setClass("Me", representation(x1 = "numeric", x2 = "numeric", y1 =
"character"))

[1] "Me"

> setMethod("print", "Me", definition=function(x) {

+ cat("Values of x1 & x2 are:", c(x@x1, x@x2), "\n")

+ })

[1] "print"

> new1 = new("Me", x1=rnorm(2), x2=rt(2, 1), y1="normal")

> print(new1)

Values of x1 & x2 are: -2.139669 -0.2102133 -0.6293572 -26.96205

 

However what I wanted to have that, user should have some option to print
the underlying object with as much accuracy as he wants, in terms of
displaying the significant digits, for example prints number of user defined
precision:

 

> print(rnorm(2), 10)

[1] -0.39146522347 -0.05624702385

> print(rnorm(2), 5)

[1] 0.34575 0.87486

 

Can somebody help me how can I get such options for my class? Additionally I
want to have 2 different additional arguments for print() function of my
class, so that "x1"  and "x2" will be displayed in different significant
digits.

 

Thanks and regards,
