Thank, that helped a lot. In Python documentation I found the
solution.

In fact it is not from that worksheet. I tried to change it. See
below.

I have the solution to that problem though it is not as much of a
solution as rather an idea what the reason could be.
On my system the %auto command works fine if there is no comment in
front of the cell.
Please open a new worksheet and copy the following code into the first
cell.
%auto
%hide
@interact
def _(base=(1..10),exponent=(-6..6)):
html('The Number: $%f$'%(base * 10**exponent))
html('In Scientific Notation: ${%d} \cdot 10^{%d}$'%(base,
exponent))
Works with me, and you will see my enhancement to the code. The two
variable thing.
Best regards
R.
