Crore is equivalent to 10e6. In this case, that would evaluate to 650'000'000 INR.

- chrismorgan 6y ago> 10e6 Under scientific notation, you should strongly prefer to write 1e7. 10e6 is just begging for people to interpret it as 10⁶ rather than 10×10⁶ (10⁷).
- kuschku 6y agoBut that's the definition, and every calculator's "engineering" mode shows it exactly like that, too. And usually you learn in middle school how to interpret that. Here’s a photo with the calculator I used in middle school, showing exactly the specified number: https://i.k8r.eu/qOUpgg.png https://i.k8r.eu/qOUpgg.png
- chrismorgan 6y agoCurious. I don’t have a traditional calculator to hand, but tools like Rust, Python and Wolfram|Alpha are all turning 10e50 into 1e51. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_notation#Normalized_notation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_notation#Normalized... agrees with my memory that in normalised form the coefficient should be at least one and less than ten.
- whatshisface 6y agoMeE isn't M^E, it's defined as M * 10^E.
- chrismorgan 6y agoAnd that’s what I was talking about from the start—10e6 is 10×10⁶, which is in normalised form 1×10⁷ or 1e7.

- kuschku 6y agoAnd the paragraph below the one you linked... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_notation#Engineering_notation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_notation#Engineerin... is directly showing exactly the mode I'm using :)
- chrismorgan 6y agoOh, I get it and see what’s happening. Kinda careless of me to miss it. Thanks for pointing it out.
- kuschku 6y agoI can see how it’s not obvious if you never learnt it, but especially in when working with the SI it’s incredibly useful and makes many hidden relationships quickly obvious.
