This behavior has been resolved and deployed to the production environment as of 10/5/23.
Description
When using a formula question in New Quizzes and the answer is set to use scientific notation as the response, for languages that use a comma instead of a period, the result is still using a period when it should be a comma.
Expected Behavior
Languages that use a comma should have the result use a comma as well.
Workaround
No workaround exists at this time.
Steps to Reproduce
- Prerequisite: Course with New Quizzes and language set to one that uses a comma.
- Create a New Quiz with a question type as a formula.
- Select to generate the results using scientific notation and going out at least one decimal places.
- After generating the result, notice that the scientific notation answer shows with a period instead of a comma.
