NAME

     correction - return the correction factor corresponding to the precision  
                  associated with rounding.


SYNOPSIS
     
     correction [PRECISION]

     
DESCRIPTION
     
     The correction command will return the factor that corresponds to the 
     precision that is used for rounding.  The factor then can be used in 
     other commands as a workaround to manipulate numbers while avoiding any 
     potential rounding errors.

EXAMPLES
     
     Example: correction 2
     Result:  0.01

     Example: correction -6
     Result:  1000000
