Dear R-Users and R-Devels, I have a problem when using knitr in combination with Hmisc. I generate a data.frame which has mixed scientific and non-scientific numbers inside. In my Latex Table I just want to have non-scientific format, so I call latex(myDataFrame, file = '', cdec = c(0, rep(4, NROW(myDataFrame) - 1)), ) Usually this works, but in this case it doesn't. I do not know why but suspect the mixed data format to be the culprit. What could I do? Using format(, scientific = FALSE) before or options(scipen = 4) before has no influence. Best Simon
R number format with Hmisc and knitr

Errata: it must say: latex(myDataFrame, file = '', cdec = c(0, rep(4, NCOL(myDataFrame) - 1)) ) But this does not work. Scientific notation is very robust :) Apologize Simon
