Subject: [Rd] pretty not covering the range properly (PR#673)
Message-ID: <200009292057.WAA02794@pubhealth.ku.dk>

When I issue the command:

if ( c(2.8,3)[1] < pretty (c(2.8,3))[1]) print ("problem")

the result is "problem" prints.
I have traced it to bits and the 2.8 of the returned vector from pretty is slightly larger.
This seems to be due to the conversion to base 10 with the ns and unit variables in src/appl/pretty.c.

Anyway if I do something like:
hist(c(2.8,3))
it fails as well because it uses pretty.

Thanks for you attention,
DavidMcLaughlin@byu.edu
