pad0 {PBSmodelling}

Pad Values with Leading Zeroes

Description

Pad numbers and/or text with leading and/or trailing zeroes.

Usage

pad0(x, n, f = 0)

Arguments

x

vector of numbers and/or strings

n

number of text characters representing a padded integer

f

factor of 10 transformation on x before padding

Details

Converts numbers (or text coerced to numeric) to integers and then to text, and pads them with leading zeroes. If the factor f is >0, then trailing zeroes are also added.

Value

If length(f)==1 or length(x)==1, the function returns a character vector representing x with leading zeroes.

If both f and x have lengths >1, then a list of character vectors indexed by f is returned.
