   In metal working the implied precision is half of the last digit.   
   If there is a bar over the last digit the precision is a unit   
   If there is a squiggly bar over the last digit the precision is two units.   
   So 1.00 means a precision required is 5 micron.   
      
   This is more significant as the talk of displayed digits after the   
   decimal point.
