Math issue, isn't it?

[Bob Sneidar]

Then the question becomes, should the IDE be doing math on the real  
number or the displayed number? I vote for the displayed number  
because that means I can have some kind of control over the outcome.  
Clearly if some calculation that comes up with a number cannot be  
compared to a literal for equal/not equal, then all accounting is out  
the window. This cannot be an intended behavior!!?!
