> Excel stores all numbers as a double. This can be an issue for large numbers
> read by the ExcelReader when converted to type string as the toString method
> is called on a Java Double resulting in a string representation of the double
> in scientific notation. This may not be the desired format by all users. This
> ticket addresses the need to update the additionalDetails documentation of
> ExcelReader highlighting this issue.
