Shouldn't Both Give The Same? Adi 20:51, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

You can report it as a bug on Jira. The two values are however identical when read as floats. It's a feature of floating point precision types; the precision is at the top, not the bottom of the value. -- Strife ^{(talk|contribs)} 20:30, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
