If these do not automatically simplify (evaluate) as above then you are
looking at a string or a list of strings. Convert with ToExpression:


ToExpression["{0,1+0+I}"]


{0, 1 + I}


The number after the number mark ( ` ) indicates the precision (number of
digits) and by default is shown in InputForm.


N[1/3, 25]


0.3333333333333333333333333


% // InputForm


0.33333333333333333333333333333\
3333333333333333333333333333`25.


*^n is shorthand for *10^n


1*^-4


1/10000
