For this individual special carefully considered case, if I understand it, then just write 1 with no decimal and no exponent, no matter the exponent.<br>
<br>
For all others, I think preferred and hopefully carefully specified as the desired form is:<br>
If no decimal then no problem or, if you place a decimal, then it needs to be followed with 0 or a number then no spaces then the e then a number. Overall, for the stuff before the e, if decimal then something; no decimal no problem.<br>
<br>
Great work to characterize and specify these important details for all known cases.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

I am a bit concerned that will add one more digit of precision, and will not be a faithful rendering of the number. Thoughts?<br>

Last night's build went OK.<br>
<br>
Found and amended code block (template output-reals) to insert missing 0 after decimal point, before scientific notation (e.g. 1.e2 converted to 1.0e2).<br>
<br>
Marked ScriptSyntaxExample.x3d meta information as a test scene.<br>
<br>
Many of your error cases in log file were test scenes or archived backups, not working scenes. I'll keep scrutinizing and pursuing problems in the list.<br>
