bookType Conversion

Numbers can be converted between different types using built-in functions. This allows you to work with values as integers, doubles, or complex numbers when needed.

Incorrect Conversion

Simply appending L to an existing variable does not convert it:

12
num <- 20 numL # Invalid way to convert
copy

Correct Conversion

Instead, you should use one of these functions:

  • as.integer();
  • as.double();
  • as.complex().
123
as.integer(3.8) as.double(5L) as.complex(7)
copy

Numerical types follow a hierarchy, which defines how values can be converted:

  • integer → double → complex conversions are always valid;
  • Converting a double into an integer truncates the decimal part;
  • A complex number can be converted only if its imaginary part is zero.
Opgave

  1. Convert the number 9.85 to an integer.
  2. Convert the integer 42, created with L, to a double.
