> I'm not sure what's the problem with the exponential notation? Same. It's just more efficient and readable that counting the 0 while considering the culture bound digit group separator norms like thousands/millions 3,3 vs laks/crore 2,2,3 cf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_numbering_system?useskin=vector#Numbering_systems_in_Hindu_epics https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_numbering_system?useski... Personally, I think it'd have been better to say the the .00 adding nothing: 1E2 1E3 etc would be far better.
