Replying to [comment:28 cremona]:
> I took account where sensible of Chris's remark that it is better in
approximate doctests not to have numbers which are approximately zero
Well, my '''personal opinion''' on this differs a bit. I think we should
remember that doctests not only serve as tests, but also as documentation.
I think it is always a difficult excercise to balance these two. For me
personally, the balance always goes in favour of documentation. When
needed, one can still add true tests in a {{{TESTS}}} section of a
doctest.
