Dear all,

I have some trouble with the number of decimals in R (currently R 
2.9.0). For instance:

 > options()$digits
[1] 3

let me hope that I will get three digits where useful when a number is 
printed. BUT:

 > 44.25+31.1+50
[1] 125

No way to get the right result 125.35

Can anybody tell me what's happens ?

Patrick
