As someone who uses R for data analysis, I’ve run into the feature of R displaying results in scientific notation. For the numbers I’m usually dealing with, scientific notation is not needed. So, after googling around, I found this Stack Overflow post that said to append the following line to the top of the code:

options(scipen=999)

Now, these results shall be displayed in the more common format, adding clarity to the analysis.
