Thread: can this be represented clearer?

Hello,

If I have a group of numbers I want to multiply such as I can just write But what if I have ?

I know I can use a product, for example lets say that the number is a random digit between 2 and 3



Is the the best way, and are there any alternatives?

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. That is very clear but I need a formula. I used those numbers as an example.

Do you mean, for example, you have the number 0.2322 and you want a formula that will give you 2 x 3 x 2 x 2 from it?

No, but that seems interesting, I would like to hear more about what you mean. As for my original question I think a \prod is as good as it gets, but thanks anyway.
