I would like to understand (in English!) the role @ plays in Roger Hui's
extended precision arithmetic example of Pi:

 

<....@o.10x^20

314159265358979323846

 

whereas if @ is left out the output format is in scientific notation.

 

<.o.10x^20

3.14159e20

 

Is this binding Pi Times to a floor / integer representation?

 

Thanks

Rob
