decimal_dot {xfun} | R Documentation |
Evaluate an expression after forcing the decimal point to be a dot
Description
Sometimes it is necessary to use the dot character as the decimal separator.
In R, this could be affected by two settings: the global option
options(OutDec)
and the LC_NUMERIC
locale. This function sets the former
to .
and the latter to C
before evaluating an expression, such as
coercing a number to character.
Usage
decimal_dot(x)
Arguments
x |
An expression. |
Value
The value of x
.
Examples
opts = options(OutDec = ",")
as.character(1.234) # using ',' as the decimal separator
print(1.234) # same
xfun::decimal_dot(as.character(1.234)) # using dot
xfun::decimal_dot(print(1.234)) # using dot
options(opts)
