    Hi,

    I import it to raid miner it become 1.349
    no, that's not true. RapidMiner actually stores the data internally with the full precision but with the default settings, only three digits are displayed in the data view. So this is only a matter of visualization and you can simply work with the data within your process and can be assured that the full precision will be used.

    However, if you want to see the full precision of your data (although data tables quickly get really full then...), you can change the corresponding setting in the preferences. Go to

    Tools -> Preferences -> General -> rapidminer.general.fractiondigits.numbers

    and change to value from "3" to something higher. Don't forget to click "Apply" to save the change for this working session only or "Save" to change it also for the next sessions. The next time you will visualize data, the full precision will be shown.

    Cheers,
    Ingo

    Just for information: the rapidminer.general.fractiondigits.numbers is also used to truncate the data written to csv files.
