Hi, I have below simple conversion
> sprintf("%0.15f", as.numeric("-177253333.333333343267441")) [1] "-177253333.333333373069763" I could not figure out why the input and output is different? Clearly this conversion is incorrect. Is there any way to convert to numerical properly? > sessionInfo() R version 4.4.0 (2024-04-24) Platform: aarch64-apple-darwin20 Running under: macOS 15.3.1 Matrix products: default BLAS: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/4.4-arm64/Resources/lib/libRblas.0.dylib LAPACK: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/4.4-arm64/Resources/lib/libRlapack.dylib; LAPACK version 3.12.0 locale: [1] C/UTF-8/C/C/C/C time zone: Asia tzcode source: internal attached base packages: [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] compiler_4.4.0 ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide https://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
