2. Scientific notation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_notation

   Converting a number from scientific notation to decimal notation, first remove the × 10 n on the end, then shift the decimal separator n digits to the right (positive n) or left (negative n). The number 1.2304 × 10 6 would have its decimal separator shifted 6 digits to the right and become 1,230,400 , while −4.0321 × 10 −3 would have its ...

3. Real number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_number

   For a number x whose decimal representation extends k places to the left, the standard notation is the juxtaposition of the digits ., in descending order by power of ten, with non-negative and negative powers of ten separated by a decimal point, representing the infinite series

4. Floating-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating-point_arithmetic

   The "decimal" data type of the C# and Python programming languages, and the decimal formats of the IEEE 754-2008 standard, are designed to avoid the problems of binary floating-point representations when applied to human-entered exact decimal values, and make the arithmetic always behave as expected when numbers are printed in decimal.

5. Repeating decimal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_decimal

   A repeating decimal or recurring decimal is a decimal representation of a number whose digits are eventually periodic (that is, after some place, the same sequence of digits is repeated forever); if this sequence consists only of zeros (that is if there is only a finite number of nonzero digits), the decimal is said to be terminating, and is not considered as repeating.

6. Decimal representation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_representation

   Moreover, in the standard decimal representation of , an infinite sequence of trailing 0's appearing after the decimal point is omitted, along with the decimal point itself if is an integer. Certain procedures for constructing the decimal expansion of x {\displaystyle x} will avoid the problem of trailing 9's.

7. Decimal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal

   Place value of number in decimal system. The decimal numeral system (also called the base-ten positional numeral system and denary / ˈ d iː n ər i / [1] or decanary) is the standard system for denoting integer and non-integer numbers. It is the extension to non-integer numbers (decimal fractions) of the Hindu–Arabic numeral system.

8. Large numbers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_numbers

   For example, class 5 is defined to include numbers between 10 10 10 10 6 and 10 10 10 10 10 6, which are numbers where X becomes humanly indistinguishable from X 2 [14] (taking iterated logarithms of such X yields indistinguishibility firstly between log(X) and 2log(X), secondly between log(log(X)) and 1+log(log(X)), and finally an extremely ...

9. Engineering notation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_notation

   Engineering notation or engineering form (also technical notation) is a version of scientific notation in which the exponent of ten is always selected to be divisible by three to match the common metric prefixes, i.e. scientific notation that aligns with powers of a thousand, for example, 531×10 3 instead of 5.31×10 5 (but on calculator displays written without the ×10 to save space).
