Scientific Notation

[Michelle]

I am writing a program for my Algebraic Structures class to generate the U(n) groups...well my problem is that it puts the larger numbers into scientific notation...and then I use FIX and I don't get the right number because of the scientific notation...is there anyway to fix this problem using QBasic...I'm also getting an overflow error sometimes....obviously I'm not very good at this!! Please help ASAP!! Thanks!

Try tagging your variables as double precision using the "#" symbol.
Please post the program, if I could take a closer look at it I could give you a better answer.
