Just so that I understand you, the value of the last "digit" is
somewhere between 9-9 and 9+9, ri

Before swallowing any Python solution, you should
realize, the values (value, error) you are usin

Hi folks, often times in science one expresses a value (say
1.03789291) and its error (say 0.00089) in a short way by parentheses

One can vary things a bit, but let's take the simplest case when we
only keep 1 digit of the error (and round it of course) and round the
value corre
