Problem 2392. Find the coefficient of a number in scientifc notation

Given a non-negative real number N, find the coefficient C and the exponent E of its scientific notation (N = C 10^E). Note that 0 <= C < 10

Examples:

Input  N = 1024
Output C = 1.024
       E = 3

Input  N = 0.0589
Output C = 5.89
       E = -2
