Question
**Programming Task: Scientific and Fixed Point Notation**

**Objective:** 
Write a program named `Format.cpp` that performs the following tasks:

1. **Input:** 
   - Prompt the user to enter two real values.

2. **Output:**
   - Calculate the sum and product of these values.
   - Display the results in two different notations:
     - **Scientific Notation:** A compact way to express numbers that are too large or too small.
     - **Fixed Point Notation:** A way to express numbers using a fixed number of decimal places.

3. **Requirements:**
   - Ensure the results are printed to three decimal places for both the sum and the product.

This task helps to understand how numbers can be formatted differently and how to manage precision in programming.
