Try something like one of these (as documented in ?formatC)
> formatC(13, flag="0", width=10)
[1] "0000000013"
> sprintf("%010g", 13)
[1] "0000000013"

Hi,
What's one way to convert an integer to a string with preceding 0's?
such that
'13' becomes '00000000013'
to be put into a string
I've tried formatC, but they removes all the zeros and replace it with
blanks
Thanks
