In R 3.0.2, I found this weird behavior:
7/0.07
[1]100
6/0.06
[1] 100 There's one space missing between the bracket and the 100 in the first case. I don't know if this is a known bug or not. It might have something to do with precision of floating point numbers:
options(digits=22) 7/0.07
[1] 99.99999999999998578915 Maybe R doesn't add the extra space when it rounds the number for display? This is probably an irrelevant issue, but I thought I would report it just in case. Pablo Barbera

Sees to be the same as the recent bug report PR#15583, which is under investigation. R always used to round before computing the width, but someone 'optimized' it recently: 3.0.1 did not do this.
