Remarks
For example, for the value 2914.24785217:
- 2 means values are significant to the nearest hundredth, so the value would normally be displayed as: 2,914.25
- 0 means values are significant to the nearest whole number, so the value would normally be displayed as: 2,914
- -3 means values are significant to the nearest thousand, so the value would normally be displayed as: 3,000
- 2914.24785217 would be used in calculations, but Precision can be used along with the Precision of other values in the calculation to determine what the resulting value precision should be.
