Wiley Webinar on Number representation on 17th August 2021 from 3 pm to 5 pm.

 A webinar was organized  "Presenting numbers and quantities with precision and style" by Wiley on 17th August, 2021 from 3 pm to 5 pm.

Counting and measuring set science apart from other pursuits. Yet, techniques of communicating quantitative information are often ignored in programmes on writing skills. Although 2017 marks sixty years of metrication in India, the precise conventions of the SI system (Système International d’Unités) are often violated by writers of research papers. The session on numbers offers answers to these and similar questions.

1) How should multi-digit numbers be printed (123,000 or 123 000 or 1,23,000)?
2) Which is the recommended symbol for the litre, L or l?
3) When should data be rounded off drastically and when not at all?
