<p>Fix hr</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>{{documentation subpage}}<br /> {{High-use}}<br /> {{template shortcut|sigfig}}<br /> This template has two different functions dependent on input.<br /> <br /> #If only one parameter is given the template counts the number of [[significant figures]] of the given number within the ranges 10&lt;sup&gt;12&lt;/sup&gt; to 10&lt;sup&gt;{{formatnum:-12}}&lt;/sup&gt; and {{formatnum:-10}}&lt;sup&gt;{{formatnum:-12}} &lt;/sup&gt; to {{formatnum:-10}}&lt;sup&gt;12&lt;/sup&gt;. It ignores any digits outside this range&lt;!--... maybe --&gt;.<br /> #If two parameters are given the template rounds the first number to the number of significant figures given by the second. If the given number has 10 or more digits, the result is returned in [[scientific notation]].<br /> <br /> == Examples ==<br /> === Two parameters ===<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|123.456|7|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|123.456|6|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|123.456|5|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|123.456|4|_show_result=y}}<br /> ----<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|123,456|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|12345.6|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|1234.56|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|12.3456|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|1.23456|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> ----<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|.123456|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|.0123456|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|.00123456|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|0.123456|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|0.0123456|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|0.00123456|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> ----<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|123.456|2|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|123.456|1|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|123.456|0|_show_result=y}}<br /> ----<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|987654321|9|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|987654321|8|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|987654321|7|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|987654321|6|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|987654321|5|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|987654321|4|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|987654321|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|987654321|2|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|987654321|1|_show_result=y}}<br /> ----<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|9876543210|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|98765432100|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|987654321000|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|9876543210000|3|_show_result=y}}<br /> <br /> === One parameter ===<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|123400|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|12340|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|1234|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|123.4|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|12.34|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|1.234|_show_result=y}}<br /> ----<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|0.1234|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|0.01234|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|0.001234|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|.1234|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|.01234|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|.001234|_show_result=y}}<br /> ----<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|-123.4|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|-12.34|_show_result=y}}<br /> *{{tld|significant figures|-1.234|_show_result=y}}<br /> <br /> == Supporting templates and modules ==<br /> * {{tl|Significant figures/rnd}}, which uses {{tl|Rnd}}, which uses {{module link|Math|precision_format}}<br /> * {{tl|Significant figures/sum}}, which uses {{tl|Precision}}, which uses {{module link|Math|precision}} <br /> * {{tl|Order of magnitude}}<br /> <br /> &lt;includeonly&gt;{{Sandbox other||<br /> [[Category:Mathematical function templates]]<br /> }}&lt;/includeonly&gt;</div>
