Scientific & Engineering Notation
Animated numbers in scientific and engineering notation with superscript exponents
NumberFlow supports scientific and engineering notation via Intl.NumberFormat. Exponents are rendered automatically as superscripts at 60% scale. They are also animated independently, so changes to the exponent (e.g. E23 → E24) roll correctly!
Notes
- The exponent part (e.g.
E23) is detected during formatting and rendered at 60% of the base font size using a pivot-scale transform. - Exponent digits roll independently, just like the mantissa digits.
- Engineering notation constrains exponents to multiples of 3 (e.g.
6.022E23→602.2E21in engineering).
