Dear R mailing list!

I would like to import points data in GRASS (with v.in.ascii).
My data includes number written with the scientific notation (for example
1.2e+23).
During the import, I am defining them as double.
Unfortunately, it doesn't work...

I get the following message :
" ERROR: Column 9 defined as double has string values "

Can GRASS actualy deal with number written with scientific notation ?
Is there a specific way to deal with these numbers ?

Many thanks in advance


Jessica
