Many of the resources and stats can quickly reach very large numbers, most notably Bacteria count and planet population.

By default, all numbers bigger than hundred are displayed using the abbreviations shown in the table below.

It is also possible to enable scientific notation in the Settings menu, which will change how the numbers are displayed in game.

Abbreviation Name Number of 0s Scientific Notation
K Thousand 3 1E+3
Mil Million 6 1E+6
Bil Billion 9 1E+9
Tril Trillion 12 1E+12

Scientific Notation

Scientific notation is a way of writing numbers that cannot be conveniently displayed using the standard decimal system.

Bacterial Takeover employs a type of scientific notation that is called the E-notation. The E stands for exponent and shows how many zeroes a particular number has. This makes it easy to make various calculations.
