Donna: The exponential numeric constants are explained in the system documentation http://www.jsoftware.com/books/help/dictionary/dcons.htm and in Henry Rich's book http://www.jsoftware.com/books/help/jforc/applied_mathematics_in_j.htm#_Toc129570854 I guess e would have been better than x except that it had already been used for base 10 exponential notation.
