Comment: as /. The basic topic is covered at Floating point, but I see nothing worth merging. I'm all for putting the work of high school students on the web, but a Wikipedia article might not be the best way. An illustrated web site somewhere might be more appropriate. -- Special:Contributions/202.124.72.217|202.124.72.217

Comment: The base 2 scientific notation does exist in both binary and decimal forms, see for example http://www.cs.sjsu.edu/~pearce/modules/lectures/co/ds/floats.htm this tutorial note. I disagree that the floating point article would be appropriate - scientific notation would be better. But the base 2 scientific notation has its own areas of application, especially in computer science, and I would hope deserves an article of its own. The current content is poorly referenced inline, so it is hard to say what is valid and what is . And anything worth keeping will also need editing for readability. Certainly, the notation itself needs to be properly explained. &mdash; Cheers
