GeoGebra
In GeoGebra, there are two different commands for writing numbers in scientific notation:
- 1.
ScientificText(<Number>)- 2.
ScientificText(<Number>, <Precision>)
ScientificText(<Number>) uses a precision of fifteen significant digits by default. ScientificText(<Number>, <Precision>) gives you the option to decide the precision for yourself. In any case, GeoGebra calculates the same number and rounds it off to fit the desired precision.
<Number> is the number you want to have expressed in scientific notation. <Precision> is the number of significant digits in the number.
