[R] String manipulation and formatting

[Christos Hatzis]

See ?formatC

You might need to write a simple wrapper function to implement the interface
that you want.

Subject: [R] String manipulation and formatting

I'm trying to write a simple function that does the following:

  [command] xify(5.2)
  [output] XXX.XX

  [command] xify(3)
  [output] XXX

Any simple solutions (without using python/perl/unix script/...)?

Thanks,
Saghir
