So 1.000054 would be (1000054, -6) = 1000054*10^(-6).Yours is probably more space efficient though. discuss order hn newest nine_k|4 years ago This is basically floating-point.IEEE 754, BTW, allows for 10-based floats, but IDK if anybody uses it. wizzwizz4|4 years ago Yours is more space-efficient for real-world numbers.
