If you type in
10e5 == 10^5
ans =
logical
0
so 10e5 does NOT mean 10 to the power of 5 but it means 10 to the power of 6.
10e5 == 10^6
ans =
logical
1
What does 10e5 mean then? Is it somewhere in the documentation? I just can't seem to find it, I've been looking for it for quite some time now.
Thanks for the help!
"1e5" means "1 times ten to the power of 5", so "10e5" means "10 times ten to the power of 5" which is equal to 10^6 or 1e6.
