java scientific notation e and e+?

Question

I'm reading the Oracle's java tutorial. In the Enum Types section, the sample code given has both e and e+ notation for floating point numbers. I'm wondering if there is any difference between e and e+. If there is no, why would they write in such way? Please refer to line 2 to 9. Thanks!

        MERCURY (3.303e+23, 2.4397e6),

        }
        double surfaceWeight(double otherMass) {
            return otherMass * surfaceGravity();
        }
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            if (args.length != 1) {
                System.err.println("Usage: java Planet <earth_weight>");
                System.exit(-1);
            }
            double earthWeight = Double.parseDouble(args[0]);
            double mass = earthWeight/EARTH.surfaceGravity();
            for (Planet p : Planet.values())
               System.out.printf("Your weight on %s is %f%n",
                                 p, p.surfaceWeight(mass));
        }
    }

没有区别， +是可选的符号值，如果未指定符号，则为默认值，因此e23或e+23都对应于10^23 。
