Without data.table:

x <- structure(list(col1 = c(NA, 0, -0.015038, 0.003817, -0.011407
), col2 = c(0.003745, 0.007463, -0.007407, -0.003731, -0.007491
)), .Names = c("col1", "col2"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA,
-5L))

x[ is.na( x ) ] <- 0
x$col3 <- x$col1 + x$col2

> x
       col1      col2      col3
1  0.000000  0.003745  0.003745
2  0.000000  0.007463  0.007463
3 -0.015038 -0.007407 -0.022445
4  0.003817 -0.003731  0.000086
5 -0.011407 -0.007491 -0.018898
