Summary: expr doesn't support E notation

Initial Comment:
expr doesn't understand 1e-5, 18e23, etc. etc.  I suppose this could be considered a feature request, but it seems to me that E notation is pretty elementary in computer math, especially considering that Pd can't save anything more than 6 digits.
