SUMMARY

The notation "(12)" in the number 0.(12)22293 93645 534 indicates that there are 12 zeros following the decimal point. This conclusion was reached in the context of the "zeros and weight factors table for Hermite Polynomial." The discussion clarified that while the notation is not commonly used for this purpose, it serves to denote the precision of the number in mathematical contexts.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of decimal notation and scientific notation
  • Familiarity with Hermite Polynomials
  • Basic knowledge of mathematical notation

I've seen it used to indicate a repeating decimal, for example

0.123(4) means 0.123444444444...

But I've never seen that notation used in the way you indicated. What was the context?
 
well, I figured it out. It means there are 12 zeros after the decimal point. I found this number in the "zeros and weight factors table for HERMITE POLYNOMIAL".

We have scientific notation for that.
