I am trying to input some numbers in stata which are higher than 1

this, stata does not show the full figure only "1.00e+12". If I try to add 2

Does anyone know how to make stata show numbers which are higher
than 1 million?
You need to adjust the format. See -help format-.
Whether a format takes effect may depend on what facility is
outputting the values. I works for -list-.
For -display-, you need to put in formats preceding the item to be
displayed, e.g., display %15.2f var1[2]
