Revision history [back]

Already reported several times, see for instance these related discussions:

• Sage Trac ticket 31447: list_plot labels don't indicate exponential notation by default
• Sage Trac ticket 30983: Fix tick label rendering in 2D plots, eg 4.0e6 displays as 4.0
• Sage Trac ticket 7964: axis labels in weird scientific notation
• Ask Sage question 63469: Plot drops exponent when scientific notation appears on the y-axis
• Ask Sage question 54462: Some 2-d plot questions
• Ask Sage question 54361: Plot ratio of Bessel functions
• 2022-07 sage-devel discussion: Display of scale multiplier in scientific notation (the e notation for powers of ten) is missing for plots starting with 0

The bug does not show up when plotting with a frame, which provides a workaround:

plot(x^2, 0, 150000, frame=True)

Hopefully soon to be solved, given the sage-devel discussion linked to above.
