Hello, I've noticed that numpy default format for saving data in ascii representation with np.savetxt() is "%.18e". Given that the default data type for numpy is double and that the resolution of doubles is 15 decimal digits, what's the reason of the the additional three digits?
The three additional digits are definitely not an issue, but I would like to understand the reason why they are there. Thanks.
