Any real number can be written in the form m × 10 ^ n in many ways: for example, 350 can be written as 3.5 × 10 2 or 35 × 10 1 or 350 × 10 0. In normalized scientific notation (called "standard form" in the United Kingdom), the exponent n is chosen so that the absolute value of m remains at least one but less than ten (1 ≤ | m | < 10).
Given the element x of G, and the exponent n written in the above form, along with the precomputed values x b 0...x b w−1, the element x n is calculated using the algorithm below: y = 1, u = 1, j = h - 1 while j > 0 do for i = 0 to w - 1 do if n i = j then u = u × x b i y = y × u j = j - 1 return y
For example, on a simple calculator, typing 1 + 2 × 3 = yields 9, while a more sophisticated calculator will use a more standard priority, so typing 1 + 2 × 3 = yields 7. Calculators may associate exponents to the left or to the right.
Engineering notation or engineering form (also technical notation) is a version of scientific notation in which the exponent of ten is always selected to be divisible by three to match the common metric prefixes, i.e. scientific notation that aligns with powers of a thousand, for example, 531×10 3 instead of 5.31×10 5 (but on calculator displays written without the ×10 to save space).
Nicolas Chuquet used a form of exponential notation in the 15th century, for example 12 2 to represent 12x 2. [11] This was later used by Henricus Grammateus and Michael Stifel in the 16th century. In the late 16th century, Jost Bürgi would use Roman numerals for exponents in a way similar to that of Chuquet, for example for 4x 3. [12]
A simple arithmetic calculator was first included with Windows 1.0. [5]In Windows 3.0, a scientific mode was added, which included exponents and roots, logarithms, factorial-based functions, trigonometry (supports radian, degree and gradians angles), base conversions (2, 8, 10, 16), logic operations, statistical functions such as single variable statistics and linear regression.
Note that the form and interpretation of a double precision exponent are identical to those of a real exponent, except that the letter D is used instead of the letter E. Nastran uses the letter D to denote double precision instead of the single precision (or float) data type.
Additionally, we can expand generalized exponent laws and negative rising and falling powers through the following identities: [11] (p 52) ( x ) m + n = ( x ) m ( x − m ) n = ( x ) n ( x − n ) m x ( m + n ) = x ( m ) ( x + m ) ( n ) = x ( n ) ( x + n ) ( m ) x ( − n ) = Γ ( x − n ) Γ ( x ) = ( x − n − 1 ) !
