Everything about Decimal representation
Expression of numbers as sequences of digits
A decimal representation of a non-negative real number r is its expression as a sequence of symbols consisting of decimal digits traditionally written with a single separator: Here . is the decimal separator, k is a nonnegative integer, and are digits, which are symbols representing integers in the range 0, ..., 9.
