indicate optional portions.
F[
n
]
: Fixed format. n is the number of digits
to display after the decimal point.
S[
n
]
: Scientific format. n is the number of
digits to display after the decimal point.
E[
n
]
: Engineering format. n is the number of
digits after the first significant digit. The
exponent is adjusted to a multiple of three,
and the decimal point is moved to the right
