The most general form is the decimal form. This comprises a string of digits using using 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. The digits are written so that the place value for each digit is ten times the place value of the digit to its right. Integer parts of numbers are separated from the fractional parts (values smaller than 1) by a decimal point, if required.

This form is the same as the expanded decimal form but with only the coefficients for the powers of 10.
