> Explanation class is currently nice and simple, and float matches the scoring 
> api, but this does not work well for debugging numerical errors of internal 
> calculations (it usually makes practical sense to use 64-bit double to avoid 
> issues).
> Also it makes for nasty formatting of integral values such as number of 
> tokens in the collection or even document's length, its just noise to see 
> {{10.0}} there instead of {{10}}, and scientific notation for e.g. number of 
> documents is just annoying. 
> One idea is to take Number instead of float? Then you could pass in the 
> correct numeric type (int,long,double,float) for internal calculations, 
> parameters, statistics, etc, and output would look nice.
