printingSeparator -- string used to separate mantissa from exponent when printing real numbers

• Usage:

  printingSeparator = s

• Inputs:
  • s, a string
• Consequences:

  • The string s will be used to separate mantissa and exponent when printing real numbers.

i1 : 3000000000000.

o1 = 3e12

o1 : RR (of precision 53)

i2 : printingSeparator

o2 = e

i3 : printingSeparator = "E"

o3 = E

i4 : 3000000000000.

o4 = 3E12

o4 : RR (of precision 53)
