Some may prefer to have inexact numbers be terminated by a zero (0), otherwise be considered exact, more similar the teaching language. 1 == 1 ; exact 1.0 == 1.0 ; inexact 0.125 == 1/8 ; exact 0.1250 == 0.1250 ; inexact 0.3... == 1/3 ; exact 0.3330 == 0.3330 ; inexact (which seems nice, simple, and somewhat elegant; without needing #e etc.) -paul-
