title: as.numeric() removes decimal places in R, how to change?
body: <p>I have what I hope is a simple question about as.numeric().  I have a bunch of data with numbers written as characters.  I want them to be numeric, but as.numeric() takes away decimal spots.  For example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>y &lt;- as.character("0.912345678")
  as.numeric(y)
  0.9123457
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thank you :)</p>
