10. Scientific Notation

• Scientific notation (exponential notation) adjusts specified decimal point to the left or to the right according to the specified value of exponent e.

• The e-suffix represents times ten raised to the power. For example,

          1e-2 ==   0.01 == 1×10-2
  
          1e-1 ==   0.10 == 1×10-1
  
          1e-0 ==   1.00 == 1×100
  
          1e+0 ==   1.00 == 1×100
  
          1e+1 ==  10.00 == 1×101
  
          1e+2 == 100.00 == 1×102
