I request an entry in the Racket reference manual index under #i so that if you run across that notation, you can readily determine that it is referring to an inexact number. (My particular example was #i1.4142135623730951, but there are clearly too many to list each one. :-)

Also an example given in the discussion of numeric types would help. The concept is mentioned, but I didn't encounter any examples of the notation. A simple:
> (sqrt 2)
#i1.4142135623730951
would have clarified things.
