RD>   If you have a look at lines nine and ten
RD>      cout << 1.e3        << endl; //  1000
RD>      cout << 1.e-3       << endl; //  0.001
RD>   Does 1.e3 mean one multiplied by a thousand, and 1.e-3
RD>   mean one multiplied minus a thousand?
   It means to move the decimal point.
   It is multiplied by e3, and by e-3, which are, respectively,
   10 raised to the third power, and ten to the -3 power, which
   would be the inverse of e3, or 1/e3.
