round_something: The function round_something() does numerical rounding with a specified number of decimals. The 'something' will typically be a data.frame with mixed column types, of which the numerical columns must be rounded. This function makes that easier: all non-numerical columns are left in place, the numerical columns are rounded. Columns that are character but can be interpreted as numerical are first converted to numerical, and then rounded.

Description

The 'something' will typically be a data.frame with mixed column types, of which the numerical columns must be rounded. This function makes that easier: all non-numerical columns are left in place, the numerical columns are rounded. Columns that are character but can be interpreted as numerical are first converted to numerical, and then rounded.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
my_DF = data.frame(A=c(1.111,2.22,3.3,4), B=c("A", "Bb", "Ccc", "Dddd"), row.names=c(1,2,3,4))
round_something(my_DF)
round_something(my_DF, 2)
my_list = list(A=c(1.111,2.22,3.3,4), B=c("A", "Bb", "Ccc", "Dddd"))
round_something(my_list)
round_something(my_list, 2)
