R可以准确表示多少个数字?根据答案here和here和documentation,我希望R的效果比下面的迷你示例(精度在16位数字后下降)要好得多:
log(.Machine$double.xmax, 10)
# 308.2547
for (i in 1:30) {
a <- rep(1, i) # make a vector of 1s
b <- paste(a, collapse = '') # turn into string
d <- as.double(b) # turn into double
e <- format(d, scientific = FALSE) # turn into string
print(e)
}
# "1"
# "11"
# "111"
# "1111"
# "11111"
# "111111"
# "1111111"
# "11111111"

请注意,我对整数感兴趣,但为最大精度使用显式的double。
