En means that every decade (0.1-1.0, 1-10, 10-100, etc.) is divided in n steps on a logarithmic scale.
Series:
E6 - 20% tolerance
E12 - 10%
E24 - 5% (also available with 1%)
E48 - 2%
E96 - 1%
E192 - 0.5% (also used for resistors with 0.25% and 0.1%).
The idea is that when a user has a value typed in, if it doesn't fall within its respective series, then we add a warning (new shade of gold is needed) to inform the user that this is not a standard IEC resistor
We will also likely add another link out to the standard resistor values page (not sure where yet).
[x] Second paragraph of app description needs to be updated for grammatical reasons.
[x] When we use selected value the value should be an Int unless it needs to be a decimal
[x] When we show recommended value we need to show it in the units that are selected in the dropdown (this makes it so we don't need to update the units dropdown)
[x] Fix long decimals from floating point multiplication errors
[ ] Clicking learn more and navigating back to the screen should keep the card visible
