⚓ CLHS » Figures » 2.14 Examples of Floating-point numbers

0.0 Floating-point zero in default format
0E0 As input, this is also floating-point zero in default format.
As output, this would appear as 0.0.
0e0 As input, this is also floating-point zero in default format.
As output, this would appear as 0.0.
-.0 As input, this might be a zero or a minus zero,
depending on whether the implementation supports
a distinct minus zero.
As output, 0.0 is zero and -0.0 is minus zero.
0. On input, the integer zero---not a floating-point number!
Whether this appears as 0 or 0. on output depends
on the value of *print-radix*.
0.0s0 A floating-point zero in short format
0s0 As input, this is a floating-point zero in short format.
As output, such a zero would appear as 0.0s0
(or as 0.0 if short-float was the default format).
6.02E+23 Avogadro's number, in default format
602E+21 Also Avogadro's number, in default format
