Scientific notation colorbar

You could use colorbar‘s format parameter: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np import matplotlib.ticker as ticker img = np.random.randn(300,300) myplot = plt.imshow(img) def fmt(x, pos): a, b = ‘{:.2e}’.format(x).split(‘e’) b = int(b) return r’${} \times 10^{{{}}}$’.format(a, b) plt.colorbar(myplot, format=ticker.FuncFormatter(fmt)) plt.show()

Converting number in scientific notation to int

Behind the scenes a scientific number notation is always represented as a float internally. The reason is the varying number range as an integer only maps to a fixed value range, let’s say 2^32 values. The scientific representation is similar to the floating representation with significant and exponent. Further details you can lookup in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating_point. … Read more

Prevent scientific notation in ostream when using

To set formatting of floating variables you can use a combination of setprecision(n), showpoint and fixed. In order to use parameterized stream manipulators like setprecision(n) you will have to include the iomanip library: #include <iomanip> setprecision(n): will constrain the floating-output to n places, and once you set it, it is set until you explicitly unset … Read more

Parsing scientific notation sensibly?

Google on “scientific notation regexp” shows a number of matches, including this one (don’t use it!!!!) which uses *** warning: questionable *** /[-+]?[0-9]*\.?[0-9]+([eE][-+]?[0-9]+)?/ which includes cases such as -.5e7 and +00000e33 (both of which you may not want to allow). Instead, I would highly recommend you use the syntax on Doug Crockford’s JSON website which … Read more
