Fractional Part and Maximal Digits of a Numeric Value

Description

Frac() returns the fractional part of a numeric value. MaxDigits() return the number of digits in x.
Ndec() returns the number of decimals.
Prec() returns the precision of a number x.

Usage

Frac(x, dpwr = NA)
MaxDigits(x)
Ndec(x)
Prec(x)

Arguments

x	the numeric value (or a vector of numerics), whose fractional part is to be calculated.
dpwr	power of 10 for a factor z, the fractional part will be multiplied with. The result will be returned rounded to integer. Defaults to NA and will then be ignored.
