<div>The 2-digit exponent is part of the C standard. Here’s what I found after a quick search on <a href="http://stackoverflow.com">stackoverflow.com</a>: "The exponent always contains at least two digits, and only as many more digits as necessary to represent
the exponent.” So, the answer to your question is … no.</div>

<div>How should I manipulate the %e specifier in Grads so that it will only print 1 digit after the exponential (i.e., the order of magnitude). I have tried things like %.0e1, but that last digit seems to have no impact on the length of the order of magnitude
portion of the string. The default is two digits. In other words, I want to change this type of tick marking behavior:<br>

to 1.5e-2<br>
<br>
</div>
Can this be done?<br>
