as.double() and is.double() Functions in R

In this article, we will discuss about as.double() and is.double() functions in R Programming Language.

as.double() Method in R

as.double is used to  convert an integer to double.

Syntax: as.double(input_values)

Both will take values as input.

Example: In this example, we will a vector with 5 elements and convert to double using as.double()

R

# create vector
vector1=c(2,3,4,5,6)

# display
print(vector1)

# convert to double
result= as.double(vector1)

# display
print(vector1)

Output:

[1] 2 3 4 5 6
[1] 2 3 4 5 6

is.double() methods in R

is.double() is used to test an data object has the double class.

Syntax: is.double(input_values)

Example: In this example, we will a vector with 5 elements and convert to double using as.double() and check they are double or not using is.double()

It will return TRUE, if it is double otherwise it will return FALSE.

R

# create vector
vector1=c(2,3,4,5,6)

# convert to double
result= as.double(vector1)

# check double or not
print(is.double(result))

Output:

[1] TRUE
