[R] read.csv and Decimal places

Hi, Novice UsR here.

I have a csv file that contains 13 columns of numeric data that have decimal places (for the most part).

After reading in the file
RevFCast = read.csv("RevAnalysisNov2016_April2018.csv", header=TRUE, dec = ".", stringsAsFactors=FALSE)

and viewing the data
View(RevFCast)

Some of the fields came in with the correct decimals and some not?

The view in R:

But the dput indicates that the values that have decimals are correct?


For example "TotalNetRev" row 1 in View = 5973157 however, as you can see below in the dput the value is 5973156.76

Am I to believe that the true values in the CSV file are present in the R data or not?

When I create a DF I see the decimals are similar to the view? 5973157 vs. 5973156.76

Since I lack experience, I'd Just like to be sure what I have is what I read in?

Thank you for any advice.
