What I need is a reasonable amount of decimal numbers to show that the number is small enough, also keeping them in float64, in my case to save them into excel file. One important thing to say is that, if I convert them into string and save them on excel they come with 'dot' instead of comma. And If try to translate the 'dot' manually into 'comma' the excel gives warning message to turn those inputs into numbers. Which I also avoid.
