Simple Javascript calculations ending up with huge decimal places
Is floating point math broken?
Say I have a cologne bottle of 100 ml that I want to carry in my hand luggage on a plane trip.  100 ml is the limit so it should be fine for the transport regulations (if not, please let me know!).  The problem I always encounter is regarding the storage of the bottle: how to prevent it from leaking?  What I normally do is to put it in a plastic bag, so that the possible loss remains there. It is fine, only that the bottle ends up quite wet.  What would be a better approach? Here's my code:  x = 1.0 y = 100000.0     print x/y   My quotient displays as 1.00000e-05.  Is there any way to suppress scientific notation and make it display as 0.00001? I'm going to use the result as a string. I am having trouble getting onto a server in Minecraft PE on iOS. When I tap on the person's server it just says invalid name:    I have tried turning off and restarting the iPad, going to home screen and logging back into the server but I have had no luck and no change. Is there a reason why this is so? What is the purpose of the Assemblies node in Web.Config? When creating a new ASP.NET AJAX Web Application in Visual Studio 2005, the default web.config contains the following section (inside the compilation node):  &lt;assemblies&gt;     &lt;add assembly="System.Web.Extensions, Version=1.0.61025.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35"/&gt; &lt;/assemblies&gt;   Whether or not the assemblies node exists doesn't seem to affect the AJAX functionality.  Update panels, etc work fine regardless of whether or not the reference to System.Web.Extensions is included in Web.Config.  What's the purpose of this section, and can it be safely removed? A continuous function that attains neither its minimum nor its maximum at any open interval is monotone Let $f: \mathbb R\to \mathbb R$ be a continuous function such that $f$ attains neither its minimum nor its maximum at any open interval $I \subseteq  \mathbb R$ , then how to prove that $f$ is monotone ? Prepend phone numbers with a calling card dial in number Missing whitespace in beta site statistics box I really miss the graphical "Services" tool from older versions of Ubuntu, but I understand why it had to go. I always have terminals open anyway, so I use (because I have to now, I guess) service --status-all to see what services are running. This would be ok except that the command produces output like the following:   [ + ]  winbind  [ ? ]  wpa-ifupdown  [ - ]  x11-common   I'm guessing that those symbols mean something like listening, blocked, or stopped, but which is which? More importantly, why doesn't the man page say? If $a,b,c$ are positive integers,and $\cfrac{a}{b}+\cfrac{b}{c}+\cfrac{c}{a}$ and $\cfrac{b}{a}+\cfrac{c}{b}+\cfrac{a}{c}$ are integers then $a=b=c$ Word caption style -- different style for label and number? This should be a common problem for anyone involved in technical writing.  When you insert an image (or table etc.) caption in Word, you get  dialog. You enter your caption,  "A happy bicycle" (in yellow).  This might be fine for a happy bicycle, but I want to have captions that have one style for the "enumeration" (label and number) and one style for the description (caption text, as called by Word), as such:    I have tried searching for this but I haven't found anything yet... How do I get to the Universe Repository in supported versions of Ubuntu? How to avoid spammy links affecting us before SERP rankings going down We have recently discovered a host of spammy links pointing to our website been put up in last 1 month through webmaster tool We have not engaged any seo agency/link building and have never created these links  Worst, these are spammy forum sites and almost some-one seems making an attack to our site as the link and keyword is same in all these sites Till not Have not received any warning, however as it has come to our notice - before any SERP getting down - we want to action this out  One thing we have observed is that - All these spammy links points to a single inner page of website  Pl suggest as have   a) Will Google disvow tool will work by stating to disvow these links  or  b) Is it a good way if we make this specific page 'nofollow' and even 'noindex' The reasoning behind this is like if the page is not followed and not indexed - the negative links pointing to the page of the site is already no follow and may be out from google serp  or what's the best alternate way to tackle this. Pl suggest in urgent help and advise required bash: /usr/bin/locale-check: No such file or directory error after i downgraded from ubuntu 18.10 to 18.04 Ubuntu 14.04.5/16.04 and newer on AMD graphics I have 14.04.5/16.04 or newer and an AMD GPU. I'm not getting the performance I want, and some programs say they need things like OpenCL.  I've heard about fglrx, but if I try to install it on my machine, it breaks and I have no GUI.  Is there anything I can do to get my AMD card working to its full potential? Are humans the only animal that requires "clean water"? Where can I obtain an English dictionary with structured data? SEO Removal Time? I was searching about removing the a domain/site being listed in Web Search Results (like, Google Search) and i found solution, .  I believe it will be the solution but what i still need to know is:   How long will it take to bring down my Website being listed from Search Engine Results? Making voltmeter accepting bipolar input voltage, using a microcontroller I want to build a very simple voltmeter using ATMEGA328 ADC. I can successfully measure up to 20v (using a voltage divider), but the problem is, I don't understand how to measure the voltage properly, if negative and positive terminals are switched.   Only way I could think of is adding another ADC input which is responsible for measuring the 'inverted voltage'. The join both ADC inputs, but add diodes in between, so one channel works with (+-) and the other channel works with (-+) and then 'merge' the input from both channels using code. Then I should be able to measure things like sin wave for example (where polarities switch).   Is the concept correct or is there a better way to do this? Thanks! I am trying to understand the derivation of the stars and bars formula. I understand how a problem can be converted to the stars and bars format, but I am confused about how the problem of choosing all the different ways to put k stars in n sections can be written as ${n+k-1 \choose k}$. Generally "n choose k" is for counting the number of combinations of k objects we can get given n distinct objects right? That I understand since we're doing permutation divided by the number of orderings for each group since order doesn't matter. I need help figuring out how stars and bars fits into this. The Windows 8 version of Google Chrome seems to have been updated to support the UI formerly known as Metro.  However, this seems to be the only option now, which means that I can no longer use Chrome on my netbook.  How do I get Google chrome to work in classic desktop mode on Windows 8?  Thanks
