Hello I have a vector v=c(0.08844446,0.1744455,0.1379778,0.1209769,0.1573065,0.1134463,0.2074027) when i do sum(v) or 0.08844446+0.1744455+0.1379778+0.1209769+0.1573065+0.1134463+0.2074027 i am getting output as 1
No: That's only the display:
sum(v)-1
[1] 1.6e-07
hope this helps. Spencer
But if i add them manually i get
1.00000026
I do not want to round of my value since it effect my code further
Can anyone suggest how can i avoid this.
Thanks & Regards
