Neglecting to look into correctness is not evidence of correctness.
By the way, the expression, “1*10E11” is a confusing mixture of two forms of a quantity.
FORTRAN and its successors use the E to mean “×10^”, so syntactically, it would be clearer
if you would write either 1E11, or 1×10^11, instead.
the problem is, that parsers for these languages are liable to parse your expression, and yield a value that is a factor of ten away from what you expect.
