<longdescription>
|
|
A @Scientific@ number is an arbitrary-precision floating-point number
|
|
represented using scientific notation.
|
|
|
|
A scientific number with 'coefficient' @c@ and
|
|
'base10Exponent' @e@ corresponds to the
|
|
'Fractional' number: @'fromInteger' c * 10 '^^' e@
|
|
|
|
Its primary use-case is to serve as the target of
|
|
parsing floating point numbers. Since the textual
|
|
representation of floating point numbers use
|
|
scientific notation they can be efficiently
|
|
parsed to a @Scientific@ number.
