I'm hoping someone with some experience generating tables in Sweave will be able to solve this problem for me. I'm experiencing some inconsistency with the way floating point numbers are displayed -- for some tables, they will be in standard notation, e.g.


11±26


while in others, it uses exponential notation, e.g.


1.1e+01±2.6e+01



I am using code such as the following; note I have specified "digits=2". There does not appear to be an argument for notation.


latex(tabletwo,
file='',
where='!h',
digits=2,
prmsd=TRUE,
caption='Time to events',
exclude1=FALSE,
long=TRUE)



This has been driving me insane for a couple hours now, so I'm hoping there is an easy answer.


Thanks in advance,
