Should be able to resolve this by changing the display's CSS overflow property's value to "hidden".

Changing the overflow property is insufficient to resolve the issue. Ideally, we can automatically show numbers in scientific notation when necessary.

At least show an error or stop user input after a certain number digits. And limit the display to 20 decimal places.

Solution: Limit input to 20 characters. The output takes care of itself. (Why?)
