17 <p>The default formatting mimicks printf with %.<i>p</i>g where <i>p</i> is
18 the precision to use. It turns out that JavaScript's toPrecision()
19 method is almost but not exactly equal to %g; they differ for values
20 with small absolute values (10^-1 to 10^-5 or so), with toPrecision()
21 yielding strings that are longer than they should be (i.e. using fixed
22 point where %g would use exponential).</p>
23
24 <p>This test is intended to check that our formatting works properly for a
25 variety of precisions.</p>
26
27 <p>Precision to use (1 to 21):
