I’m curious about the possibility to convert Float64 numbers to Rational numbers for exact computations. I’m a little puzzled by the following: julia> x = 2.64 2.64 julia> y = Rational(x) 5944751508129055//2251799813685248 julia> z = 264//100 66//25 julia> Float64(y) 2.64 julia> Float64(z) 2.64…

Float -> Rational numbers?
