Thank you. I mainly didn't know about the vector/matrix printing rules.

Subject: RE: [R] Controlling the precision of the d
When you print a vector R uses a single
format for the whole vector and tries to
come up with one format that displays all the values
accurately enough. For a matrix (or data.frame)
it uses a different format for each column, so perhaps
you would like the output of:
> matrix(a, nrow=1, dimnames
Hi Kevin,
I am not sure you will find anything other than manual tweaking, that
will vary between no decimals for integers, some for small fractions,
and scientific for very small. You can also look at: ?round
?format. If this is for code/a report, you could make any formatting
you wanted with
