14j5 ": 3.12
      3.12000
 14j1 ": 3.12
          3.1


2006/11/18, Pascal Jasmin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

I would like a verb f such that f returns a literal that is exactly the
number that was typed.  ie:

    f 3.12
3.12
    f 3.120
3.120

    ": 3.12
3.1200000000000001


I need this info to simply count the number of decimals given, so if there
is an alternate way of doing this, and the above is impossible, then help is
appreciated.
