I am trying to insert this to excel by copy and pasting it. What do the letters and numbers mean? How would this data look once it was converted?

The number 0.00256 is expressed as 2.56E-03 in scientific notation .

What this means is that the number before E (2.56 in this case) is multiplied by 10 raised to the power of -3 , which is 2.56*10^(-3) .

Similarly the number 744.67 is expressed as 7.4467E+02.

For example , your first y value (1.975000E-01) would be 0.1975 since it is 1.975 * 10^(-1) .

Your first x value (4.0E+00) would simply be 4 since it is 4.0*10^(0).
