You can use sprintf:

> x <- runif(5)
> x
[1] 0.89838968 0.94467527 0.66079779 0.62911404 0.06178627
> cat(sprintf("%.2f%% ", x * 100))
89.84%  94.47%  66.08%  62.91%  6.18% >

For example, I use: R <- ts(read.xls("FundData"), frequency = 12, start = c(1996, 1)) Whith this program, the returns are like 0.0152699. But, I would like to have 1.52%. Please advise me about the function. Thanks!
