scientific notation - How to get value after e for python floats -
i enter values in scientific notation (e.g. 3.472e-07) floats in python. there simple way access exponent of given float in python?
e.g. given x = 4.7820012347239297234e-7, there way value after e (in case, -7).
thanks!
(1) take log of number , round value accordingly.
for val in [12345678901234567890.0, .0000004782]: logval = math.log10(val) print val, logval, round(logval - (0.5 if logval<0 else 0)) (2) convert string, grab first occurrence of "e" from right end, , take remainder of string.
for val in [12345678901234567890.0, .0000004782]: valstr = "{0:e}".format(val) epos = valstr.rfind('e') exponent = valstr[epos+1:] print int(exponent) would either of work you?
