Energy level readout needs to display enough decimal places  #57

Description

@veillette

For a double-well potential with a wide separation, the energy level splitting becomes extremely small but remains distinct. It is pedagogically important for students to see that these energy levels are not perfectly degenerate (equal), and to be able to track this energy difference as the separation changes. Example reference:

E_3 = 0.303729 eV
E_4 = 0.303730 eV

To support this use case, the energy level readout needs to display enough decimal places to reflect these subtle differences.

Java seems to have that logic so maybe we can borrow from it.
