Nope. It isn't. You're mixing up two different notations. In the current context, 10e isn't a number. In another context, it would be the (natural) exponential number e multiplied by 10. This however isn't the context of the Wikipedia page about scientific notation, which Alejandro linked to bu

The recipe is simple - right-click on a handler that is in a library stack - you can't go to definition. I believe that you can't step into a library handler, either, during debugging. The only way to debug library handlers is to put debug checkpoints in the libraries. On Tue, Sep 3, 2013 at 2:
