[erlang-questions] Bug? Pretty-printing floating point values

[Christian S]

Doesn't look like the number of significant digits when read are stored.

I wouldn't call it a bug. It is how floating point numbers work.
They're very exact with fractions that are a sum of limited numbers of
negative powers of two though.
