Any engineers in the audience tonight?


SIGNIFICANT DIGITS - Four Simple Rules:
  • All non-zero numbers are significant
  • Zeros between a non-zero number and the decimal point are not significant(this rule applies either direction from the decimal).
  • Zeros between non-zero numbers (or between any significant digit, see rule 4 below) are significant.
  • Trailing zeroes after a decimal point are significant.
Any questions?
