This method is a bit more tricky. It determines approximately the number of significant digits that are taken into account when doing the comparison. This number is defined by the field `"tolerance" : [integer]`. Higher is this number, more accurate is the test. More exactly, the formula is the following: This method is a bit more tricky. It determines approximately the number of significant digits that are taken into account when doing the comparison. This number is defined by the field `"tolerance" : [integer]`. Higher is this number, more accurate is the test. More exactly, the formula is the following:
```math ```math
-\log_{10}( | ( base / int( \log_{10}( base ) ) - ( ref / int( \log_{10}( base ) ) | <= tolerance -\log_{10}( | ( base / int( \log_{10}( base ) ) - ( test / int( \log_{10}( base ) ) | <= tolerance
``` ```
except if $`tolerance = 0`$. In this case, no difference is allowed at all. except if $`tolerance = 0`$. In this case, no difference is allowed at all.
