As the first executable line of your program, put
format long g
After that, you will not get those silly 1.0e+007 * displays, and you will be able to see why the mantissa showed up as 1.3375 instead of 0.000 .

I am not sure what you mean by large_exp(). I assume it is a function you wrote, or maybe it is in a toolbox that I do not have. Regardless, I expect that you can get at what you need by using the floor() function.
