Scientific notation is a way of representing numbers, usually very large or very small, in the form
a*10^b where 1 <= |a| < 10 is a decimal number and b is an integer (negative or positive).
a is called the mantissa and b is called the exponent. To convert a number to scientific notation:
- If the number has no decimal point, then add one at the end.
- Then move the decimal point to just after the first digit while counting the number of places you have moved it.
- The mantissa of the new number, formed after moving the decimal point is a.
- The number of places to the left that the decimal point was moved is b.
