Dear R People: I have used the command round(x,3) to produce values with 3 places to the right of the decimal. Is there any command to remove the leading zero before the decimal point, please: that is, if I have 0.375, how do I produce just .375, please? Thanks in advance R 2.0.1 for Windows Sincerely, Laura Holt mailto: lauraholt_983 at hotmail.com
