Dear R-users

 

I am using RPART package to get regression trees.  However having trouble 
getting the text function to put the full splitting rule number on the plot, 
instead to puts it in scientific notation.  When a covariate has 1e4 or greater 
number of digits then the splitting rule number displayed on the plot is in 
scientific notation.  But print.rpart displays the splitting rules in full.  I 
have tried using digits option in text function but this only alters digits of 
the mean displayed at terminal nodes.  How do I get the full splitting rule 
number displayed on the tree plot?

Below is an example. 

 

library(rpart)

temp <- as.data.frame(cbind(kyphosis, Start2=kyphosis$Start))

 

temp$Start2 <- temp$Start2+10000

 

fit1 <- rpart(Age~ Kyphosis +Number + Start2, data=temp)

plot(fit1)

text(fit1, use.n=TRUE, digits=5)

Thanks
