How to Use the Scales Package in R for European-style Number Formatting
Hello, my European friends! Ever read the number 123.45 (formatted in the American style where the period is the decimal point) and wish you could easily convert this to a European-style 123,45 (where the comma is the decimal point). You can! In this R in 2 Minutes video, I show you how to use the scales package in R for European-style number formatting.
Code shown in video
library(scales)
comma(
x = 123.45,
accuracy = 0.01
)
comma(
x = 123.45,
accuracy = 0.01,
big.mark = ".",
decimal.mark = ","
