This is a documentation subpage for Template:Order of magnitude. It contains usage information, categories, interlanguage links and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage
This template calculates the (decimal) order of magnitude of numbers within the ranges 10300 to 10−300 and −10−300 to −10300.
The template currently gives 0 for 0. Do not rely on this, however, because this mathematically incorrect result is under review (see talk).
Examples
{{Order of magnitude|123400}}→ 5 [1]{{Order of magnitude|12340}}→ 4 [2]{{Order of magnitude|1234}}→ 3 [3]{{Order of magnitude|123.4}}→ 2 [4]{{Order of magnitude|12.34}}→ 1 [5]{{Order of magnitude|1.234}}→ 0 [6]{{Order of magnitude|.1234}}→ -1 [7]{{Order of magnitude|.01234}}→ -2 [8]{{Order of magnitude|0}}→ 0 [9]{{Order of magnitude|}}→ Expression error: Unexpected = operator. [10]{{Order of magnitude}}gives 0 [11]
